What is a .MRW file?

A .MRW file is a type of image file known as a Minolta Raw Image. This file format is specifically created by Minolta Dimage digital cameras. When a photo is taken with one of these cameras, the image data is saved in an MRW file without any compression or processing. This means the file holds the image exactly as the camera's CCD sensor captured it, including all the original details and colors.

Because MRW files store all the raw data from the camera sensor, they tend to be quite large in size. This large amount of data is beneficial for photographers who wish to edit their photos in detail, as it allows for more flexibility in post-processing compared to standard JPEG images.
