The data of a raw file is stored together with the picture data rather than being constantly applied to it. It's convenient to use RAW files during the editing process. There's also a difference between the formats – it's the 'depth' of the pixels. JPEG uses 8-bit, while raw files use 12 or 14 bit, thus storing more color data. I am totally new to canoncommunity. And also new to shooting in RAW. So I recently purchased an EOS M5, and last night shot some images in RAW. I tried to download my photos to Photos for Mac by inserting my SD card into my macbook (as I have previously done with any photos)but can only see the thumbnails. Any help would be appreciated. RAW file open in Adobe Photoshop CC 2019. RAW files are used to produce higher quality images since the format stores data captured from a camera's sensor in an uncompressed format. RAW files do not lose data like JPEG files do when they are compressed. However, RAW files can be very large in size because they are not compressed. Viewing a RAW file in Windows or Mac OS Both Windows and MacOS systems can read RAW files from different cameras without the need for specialized software. Simply copy the files to your computer and open them in the same way as a JPG photo. The RAW Image Extension enables viewing images in the Photos app as well as thumbnails, previews, metadata of RAW images in File Explorer. You can open a RAW file’s properties window to see the metadata. Head to the Microsoft Store and search for “Raw Images Extension,” or go directly to the Raw Image Extension page.
