What is a .MRW file?
MRW is Minolta’s camera RAW format. Opened in Adobe Lightroom.
- Did you know
- MRW dates from Minolta’s DSLRs, before Sony took over the camera line in 2006.
- MRW is the raw format created by Minolta’s DiMAGE and Maxxum digital cameras, including the Maxxum 7D.
- It stores the unprocessed data straight from the camera’s sensor, exactly as it was captured.
- When Konica Minolta left the camera business in 2006 it handed its camera assets to Sony.
- Sony retired the MRW format for its Alpha line, replacing it with the ARW raw format.
- What Analyser shows you
- Open camera RAW files from Sony (ARW), Canon (CR2, CR3, CRW), Nikon (NEF, NRW), Fujifilm X-Trans (RAF), Sigma Foveon (X3F), Olympus (ORF), Panasonic (RW2), Pentax (PEF), Adobe DNG and many more. Reads full EXIF and lens data, the true sensor resolution, GPS and histograms, recovers the Sony and Nikon shutter actuation count, and develops the RAW - decoding the sensor to a full-resolution image, or extracting the embedded preview when a true demosaic is not available.
