Good to know

  • CR3 files are developed on our server with the camera's own white balance, then saved as TIFF. Expect a good-looking picture, not a replacement for your RAW editor.
  • Tick Remove metadata in Options to leave out information stored in the picture, such as the camera and the place.

Is converting CR3 to TIFF free?

Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
