CRW

The CRW file format is a Canon proprietary RAW image format used by Canon digital cameras. It retains unprocessed image data, offering superior image quality and flexibility during post-processing. Ideal for photographers, CRW files facilitate detailed edits while preserving original quality, making them a preferred choice for professional and amateur photographers alike.

JSON

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse and generate. Widely used in web applications for data exchange, JSON supports a text format that is completely language-independent, making it a preferred choice for APIs and configuration files.
