How do I batch convert RAW photos to JPG?

Drop all your RAW files here, from any camera or phone, and get them back as JPGs in one ZIP. No Lightroom or Photoshop needed: they are developed on our server and deleted after 72 hours.

Short answer

Drop all the RAW files at the top of this page and click Upload and convert: each one is developed on our server and turned into a JPG, and Download all gives you every JPG in one ZIP. It works for Canon CR2 and CR3, Nikon NEF, Sony ARW, Fujifilm RAF, phone DNG and more, with no Lightroom or Photoshop. The JPGs look neutral, like any RAW converter’s, not like the camera’s own JPGs.

Convert a whole shoot to JPG

  1. Select all the RAW files from your memory card or folder (Ctrl+A or Cmd+A) and drop them at the top of this page. Different cameras can be mixed.
  2. Each file is set to JPG. Open Options on a file to choose the size (for example 2048 pixels for sharing) or the quality, or to remove the location and camera details.
  3. Click Upload and convert. The files are developed on our server, a few at a time.
  4. Click Download all to get every JPG in one ZIP.

Tip: Each RAW file uses about one free credit (one per started minute of work), so a large shoot can use up the day’s credits; they reset at midnight UTC. Files up to 1 GB each are accepted.

Which cameras and phones work?

RAW files are developed with LibRaw, the open-source RAW library behind many photo apps, which reads over a thousand camera models: Canon CR2 and CR3 (including C-RAW), Nikon NEF, Sony ARW, Fujifilm RAF, Olympus ORF, Panasonic RW2, and DNG from Leica, Pentax and phones such as the iPhone (ProRAW), Pixel and Galaxy.

A camera released after the version of LibRaw on our server may not be developed yet. Then ConvertKitty uses the full-size preview picture the camera stored inside the RAW file, and tells you so.

Will the JPGs look like the photos on my camera?

Close, but not identical. A camera’s own JPG applies its picture style (Canon Picture Style, Nikon Picture Control, Fujifilm film simulations), sharpening and noise reduction. A RAW converter develops the RAW data neutrally, with the camera’s white balance, so colours and contrast can look slightly flatter.

For the camera’s exact look, use the camera maker’s free software: Canon Digital Photo Professional, Nikon NX Studio, Sony Imaging Edge or Fujifilm X RAW Studio. For editing, use Lightroom, darktable or RawTherapee. ConvertKitty is for getting shareable JPGs quickly, without installing anything.

We tested it: thirteen cameras and phones

In our weekly test with real RAW files on the live server, all thirteen converted to JPG, from Canon, Nikon and Sony cameras to iPhone, Pixel and Galaxy phones. Each took between 1.2 s and 6.9 s on the server; the upload comes on top. The JPGs are a tenth of the RAW size or less.

Tip: Tested on 8 November 2026 with sample files from raw.pixls.us. The Nikon D850’s 45-megapixel file is the slowest; most files take one to three seconds.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert many RAW files to JPG at once?

Select all the RAW files, drop them on ConvertKitty’s RAW to JPG converter, click Upload and convert, then Download all for one ZIP. Different cameras’ files can be mixed in one batch.

Can I convert RAW to JPG without Lightroom or Photoshop?

Yes. ConvertKitty develops CR2, CR3, NEF, ARW, DNG, RAF, ORF and RW2 files on its server with LibRaw and returns JPGs, with nothing to install. The camera makers’ own free apps (Canon DPP, Nikon NX Studio, Sony Imaging Edge) also do it.

Will the JPG look like the photo on my camera?

Close, but not identical: a camera’s own JPG applies its picture style, sharpening and noise reduction, while a RAW converter develops the photo neutrally. For the camera’s exact look, use the camera maker’s free software.

Can I convert RAW to JPG without losing quality?

A JPG always keeps less than the RAW file, but at high quality the photo looks the same on screen and in print. Choose TIFF for no further loss, and keep the RAW files for editing later.

How do I convert iPhone ProRAW (DNG) to JPG?

Drop the DNG on the DNG to JPG converter. iPhone ProRAW files are developed like any other DNG; in our test an iPhone 12 Pro ProRAW photo converted in about two seconds on the server.

How long does converting RAW to JPG take?

One to seven seconds per photo on our server in our tests (the Nikon D850’s 45-megapixel file was the slowest), plus the upload. A whole shoot is converted a few files at a time.

Is it free?

Yes. Everyone gets 50 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. Each RAW file usually takes one credit.

Are my photos kept?

No. RAW files go to our server only to be developed, over an encrypted connection, and both they and the JPGs are deleted 72 hours later.
