Convert RWZ to JPG

Understanding RWZ and JPG file formats

The RWZ file format is a proprietary format used by certain digital cameras to store raw image data. These files contain unprocessed data directly from the camera's sensor, allowing photographers to have greater control over image editing and post-processing. On the other hand, the JPG (or JPEG) format is a widely-used image format known for its lossy compression, which significantly reduces file size while maintaining acceptable image quality. JPG files are ideal for sharing and displaying images on the web due to their smaller size.
