Now for the details. RW2 is Panasonic's RAW format storing unprocessed image data from Lumix cameras. HDR (Radiance) is a high-dynamic-range image format used in lighting and rendering. Converting between these two formats lets you convert between formats quickly.
Full Name: RW2 uses Panasonic RAW, while HDR uses Radiance HDR Image. Compression: RW2 uses Lossless, while HDR uses Lossless. Transparency: RW2 uses No, while HDR uses No.
Your RW2 file is decoded and re-encoded as HDR. Converting RW2 to HDR maintains high quality with CocoConvert's optimised encoder settings.
CocoConvert runs entirely online — no software to install, no account to create. Your files are encrypted during upload (TLS), processed on isolated servers in Germany, and permanently deleted after 24 hours. It works in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and all mobile browsers.
Need to convert more than one file? Free users can do 5 per hour. Pro gets 100 per hour with files up to 5 GB each.
