Three steps to convert rw2 to jpg

  3. 3

    Download the JPGs

    Take them one by one or all at once in a ZIP.

Who converts RW2 to JPG?

Panasonic's RW2 files are well supported by Lightroom but little else. Converting to JPG gets a Lumix shot into the places that matter.

Travel and street photography

Pull the best Lumix frames off the card and post them without a trip through an editor.

Video shooters grabbing stills

GH-series users who also shoot stills in RW2 can make shareable JPGs quickly.

Sharing with family

Relatives cannot open RW2 at all, but a JPG works on any phone.

Web galleries and blogs

Blogging platforms accept JPG only, so convert the RW2 before uploading.

Frequently asked questions

What is an RW2 file?

+

RW2 is the RAW format of Panasonic Lumix cameras, including the G, GH, FZ and full-frame S series. It holds the camera's untouched sensor data, so ordinary photo apps cannot display it.

Which Lumix cameras work?

+

We tested a GH5 RW2 at its full 5208 by 3904 pixels. Other Lumix bodies use the same format family, so they are expected to work too.

Does it handle Micro Four Thirds files?

+

Yes. The decoder reads the sensor layout and crop from the file, so MFT and full-frame RW2s both come out at the right size.

Why does the JPG look different from my Lumix preview?

+

Photo Styles such as Standard or V-Log L are applied by Panasonic's own tools. Here the file is developed with your white balance and a neutral sRGB curve, a clean base for editing.

Is anything uploaded?

+

No. Conversion runs on your device in the browser, and your RW2 files never leave it.

Can I convert many RW2 files at once?

+

Yes. Drop a batch, let them develop in turn, then download a ZIP of JPGs.
