Convert SRW to JPG

Understanding srw and jpg file formats

SRW is a proprietary raw image file format developed by Samsung for its digital cameras. It contains minimally processed data directly from the camera's sensor, allowing for extensive post-processing and high image quality. JPG (or JPEG) is a widely used compressed image format that balances image quality and file size, making it ideal for sharing, printing, and web use.
