RAF vs TIFF Format Comparison

Aspect	RAF (Source Format)	TIFF (Target Format)
Format Overview	RAF Sony RAW Format RAW image format capturing unprocessed sensor data from Sony cameras, preserving maximum image detail and dynamic range. RAW	TIFF Tagged Image File Format Flexible raster format supporting lossless compression and high bit-depth channels. Lossless
Compression	Lossless or minimal compression retaining all sensor data for maximum post-processing flexibility.	Optional lossless compression (LZW, ZIP, PACKBITS) preserving pixel data without quality loss.
Color Depth	12-bit or 14-bit per channel RAW data (36-42 bits total) with extensive dynamic range.	Supports 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit per channel for deep color workflows.
File Size	Large files (20-60 MB) containing full sensor data and metadata information.	Very large files (20-200 MB) depending on compression, layers, and bit depth.
Processing Stage	Unprocessed RAW sensor data requiring development software for viewing and editing.	Processed or partially processed, ready for editing, archiving, and printing.
Advantages	Maximum image quality and dynamic range Non-destructive editing capabilities Extensive post-processing flexibility Professional photography standard	Industry-standard for archiving and printing Multi-page and layer support Wide software compatibility Supports advanced metadata and annotations
Disadvantages	Requires specialized software for viewing and editing Limited compatibility with standard viewers Complex processing workflow required Proprietary format specific to Sony cameras	Large file sizes may impact storage and transfer Not ideal for web delivery without further compression Slower loading times in some applications
Use Cases	Professional photography workflows Fine art and commercial photography High-end photo editing and retouching Digital asset management systems	Archiving and printing high-resolution images Scientific and medical imaging Large format banners and posters Technical drawings and architectural plans

Why Convert RAF to TIFF?

Converting RAF to TIFF provides a versatile, lossless image format ideal for professional editing and long-term archiving. TIFF supports multiple compression schemes and high bit-depth channels, preserving every nuance of the original RAW data.

Our converter retains all EXIF and metadata from your RAF files, including camera settings and creation details. Batch processing allows converting multiple RAF images to TIFF in one go, streamlining your workflow.

Use TIFF outputs for print-ready images, scientific analysis, or any application requiring uncompromised image fidelity and metadata integrity.

Key Benefits:

Lossless compression with multiple scheme options
Supports 8-bit to 32-bit channels for deep color workflows
Batch conversion for high-volume projects
Full metadata retention including EXIF, IPTC, XMP
