Fast, instant ORF (OLYMPUS) to PNG conversion. No signup required. Just drop your .orf file and get .png in seconds.
Batch Settings
HDR data will be tone-mapped
Your ORF file may contain HDR (High Dynamic Range) data. PNG only supports standard dynamic range (SDR). Highlights and shadows will be compressed to fit the 8-bit range — subtle detail in very bright or dark areas may be lost.
Some metadata may not survive
Your ORF file may contain EXIF, MakerNote metadata. PNG has limited or no support for these metadata types. Location data (GPS), camera settings, and color profiles may be stripped during conversion.
