Lower values yield better compression but lower image quality. Default (92) is a good balance between image quality and compression.

Lower values compress the image faster at the expense of lower compression quality and bigger file size.

What is a Sony RAW (ARW) file?

Sony RAW (ARW) is the raw file format produced by Sony Alpha cameras, from the entry-level bodies to the full-frame a7 and a1 series. Based on the TIFF/EP structure, an ARW holds the complete sensor readout together with the lens, ISO, and exposure metadata recorded at capture. Nothing is baked in, so white balance, highlight recovery, and colour can all be reworked later without degrading the image.

How to open a Sony RAW file?

Sony’s Imaging Edge Desktop renders ARW files exactly as the camera intended, including Sony’s Creative Look profiles.

Most photographers prefer Adobe Lightroom or Adobe Camera Raw, while RawTherapee and darktable offer the same capability. Very new camera models may need a software update before their ARW files are recognised. To share an image quickly, use our ARW to JPG converter.

What is a WebP file?

WebP is an open-source file type that uses predictive compression to create images that are ideal for web pages and mobile applications. WebP images are as much as 30 percent smaller than JPEG (JPG) and Portable Network Graphics (PNG) files, with similar visual quality. WebP images load quickly on web pages and mobile applications.

How to open a WebP file?

The default program for opening WebP is Google Chrome (Chrome), which works across platforms. WebP files also open automatically on GIMP and Microsoft Paint. Besides Chrome, all other web browsers support the WebP format.

Alternative free viewers to try are Pixelmator and Photopea. Also, try Corel PaintShop Pro. Prior to using IrfanView, Windows Photo Viewer, and Adobe Photoshop, be sure to install the plugins for opening WebP.
