Converter CRW to BGP

CRW is a highly specialized graphic file format developed by the manufacturer of the famous Canon cameras. It is designed to record “raw” images captured by different models of a digital camera Canon. In its characteristics, it is very similar to another proprietary format of this developer - CR2. The main advantage of the CWR format is the preservation of the quality of the digital image as it comes from the camera matrix. The format also contains metadata, namely: conditions for photographing and fixing the image, default image processing settings, camera model.

BPG is a new graphic format developed by French programmer Fabrice Bellard, known as the creator of the popular programs FFmpeg, QEMU, LZEXE. The main task of the new format is to become a replacement, first of all, for the super popular JPEG image format. According to the developer, such a replacement is necessary where the file size or quality is of great importance. BPG (full name Better Portable Graphics) has a high compression ratio, which, when equal to JPEG quality, allows you to make files much smaller. Moreover, compression is possible without loss. Since the BPG format also supports animation, this gives rise to forecasts that this particular format can successfully compete and eventually replace the animated GIF on the Internet, since it surpasses it in all respects. So, GIF-animation of similar quality will have a much larger size. The BPG format is based on a subset of the HEVC open video compression technology. Mozilla research has shown that HEVC coding demonstrates clear superiority over other technologies. However, the HEVC standard does not have perfect patent purity, and therefore many browsers so far refrain from supporting BPG. Therefore, to download images by most web browsers, you need to use a special Javascript decoder.
