<title>RAW support in Shotwell</title>
<p>Some cameras have the ability to store data directly off the sensor
and into a file that contains extra color information; this is commonly
referred to as 'RAW' or 'camera RAW', and Shotwell supports these files
as well.</p>
<p>Since RAW photographs normally cannot be displayed directly, but must
be first developed - that is, have their extra information interpreted and
readied for displaying - most cameras will either embed a JPEG inside a
RAW-format file, or produce a JPEG alongside the RAW file at the time the
snapshot is taken. The latter is referred to throughout this document as
RAW+JPEG. If you import a RAW+JPEG pair, Shotwell will
keep them paired and treat them as one item in your library.
</p>
<p>When you import a RAW file, you can choose to either use the camera's
internally-developed JPEG or Shotwell's by selecting
<guiseq><gui>Photos</gui><gui>Developer</gui></guiseq> in the menus.
</p>
<note>
<p>
Changing between developers will cause all edits made to a photograph
to be discarded.
</p>
</note>
<p>
In order to publish or use a RAW photograph in most other software, it has to be
exported first. Shotwell can export your RAW photos in JPEG, PNG, TIFF
or BMP format, and, when publishing, will internally export a JPEG version
for you and publish that.
