What is a CR3 (Canon Raw 3) file?

Canon Raw 3 (CR3) is the current-generation raw file format used by Canon cameras, replacing the older CR2. CR3 is built on the ISO base media container — the same underlying structure as MP4 — and adds Canon’s C-RAW option, which produces files roughly 30–40% smaller than uncompressed raw with very little visible difference. Every CR3 keeps the full sensor readout plus the camera and lens metadata, so exposure and white balance stay fully adjustable.

How to open a CR3 file?

Canon’s Digital Photo Professional is the reference application for CR3 and applies Canon’s own colour profiles.

Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw have supported CR3 since 2018, and RawTherapee and darktable now read it too. Older software may reject CR3 entirely — in that case convert it with our CR3 to JPG tool.

What is a PSD (Photoshop Document) file?

Photoshop Document (PSD) is the default file type for Adobe Photoshop, a powerful and complex graphic design program. PSD can store an image along with a complex array of its corresponding layers, vector paths, objects, filters, and more, all in one file! PSD allows a user to make surgical edits on individual components of an image or a graphic design while retaining the file’s information in an accessible format. One drawback of PSD is that it can be large and unwieldy.

How to open a PSD file?

Adobe Photoshop is the most common program to open a PSD file. A free alternative to Adobe products is the GNU Image Manipulation Program, otherwise known as GIMP.

Due to the size of PSD files, they are not easy to transport, store, or share. To overcome this, PSD is often converted to a file format that can compress the data. Most often, the conversion is to JPEG, which offers lossy compression, or PNG, which offers lossless compression.
