Leica RAW (RWL) is the raw file format written by Leica compact cameras in the D-Lux and V-Lux lines. It stores the sensor data exactly as captured, with no sharpening, noise reduction, or white balance applied, which is why raw files are often described as digital negatives. RWL is closely related to Panasonic’s RW2 format, since the two manufacturers shared camera designs, and Leica’s professional bodies typically record DNG instead.

 

How to open a Leica RAW file?

Leica bundles Adobe Photoshop Lightroom with many of its cameras, and Lightroom or Adobe Camera Raw is the most straightforward way to open RWL.

 

RawTherapee and darktable also read RWL, while XnView MP is good for quickly browsing a shoot. If an older program will not accept RWL, convert it first with the Adobe DNG Converter.

Portable Network Graphics (PNG) is a raster-based file type that compresses images for portability. PNG images can have RGB or RGBA colors and support transparency, which makes them perfect for use in icons, or graphic designs. PNG also supports animations with better transparency (try our GIF to APNG). The benefits of using PNG are Plus, PNG is an open format that uses lossless compression. 

How to open a PNG file?

Generally, PNG files will open in your operating system’s default image viewer. PNG files are also easily viewable on all web browsers. If you are having trouble opening PNG files, use our PNG to JPG, PNG to WebP, or PNG to BMP converters.


Alternative programs such as GIMP or Adobe Photoshop are useful for opening and editing PNG files. PNG files are a bit larger than other file types, so exercise caution when adding them to a web page. One interesting feature of PNG files is the ability to create transparency in the image, particularly a transparent background.
