File Extension | ARW |
Full Name | Sony Digital Camera RAW Image Format |
Files with the .ARW extension contain digital images in raw and uncompressed form – exactly as captured by the camera CCD sensor. The format is based on the TIFF specification, although it is not standardized – the encoding can be different depending on the camera model. ARW files are unique to Sony digital cameras.
File Extension | 3FR |
Full Name | Hasselblad 3F RAW Image |
3FR is an extension characteristic of files used by digital cameras produced by the Hasselblad company. 3FR is a file that is a kind of RAW image. In addition to the image data, it contains metadata about it. 3FR are high definition images generated directly by the camera's image sensor (CCD) when taking a photo.
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "ARW") to another (referred to as "3FR"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, ARW file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format ARW to format 3FR becomes essential.
So, how can we perform ARW to 3FR file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format ARW and transforming it into format 3FR. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of ARW to 3FR converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of ARW to 3FR. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the ARW file:
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
