Professional RAW to TIFF conversion
TIFF is the standard for high-quality, lossless imaging in photography and print workflows. Convert your camera RAW to an LZW-compressed TIFF that keeps every detail and opens in any professional editor — all processed in memory and deleted the instant you download.
About Converting RAW to TIFF
RAW files store the unprocessed sensor data straight from a camera, preserving maximum detail and dynamic range for editing. They must be converted to a standard format for sharing. When you need to move away from RAW, the usual reason is simple: huge files.
Converting your RAW image to TIFF solves that. TIFF is a flexible, high-fidelity raster format favored in publishing, photography and scanning. It supports lossless compression, layers and multiple pages in a single file. In practice you gain lossless, print-quality output and multi-page and layer support. PrivConvert runs the whole RAW-to-TIFF conversion in server memory and deletes your file the instant the TIFF is ready — nothing is stored, logged or reused.
When this conversion helps
- You need lossless, print-quality output
- You need multi-page and layer support
- You need industry standard for scanning and prepress
- Sharing a RAW image with someone whose software expects TIFF
Tips for best results
- TIFF preserves quality exactly, so the conversion from RAW will not introduce any new compression artifacts.
- For the smallest possible TIFF without visible quality loss, start from the highest-quality RAW you have.
- Files up to 250 MB are supported, and you can batch-convert several RAW files at once; each is processed privately and deleted immediately.
