So what options are their for pulling raw files off your camera? The obvious one is to plug it in to a laptop, which gives you the greatest amount of flexibility in image processing but kinda defeats the object of using a smartphone in the first place! That's not something to pass up either with the extensive capabilities of the likes of Snapseed and it's more recent ability to process raw files.Īt a time when camera manufacturers should be embracing open platforms and computational photography, we see them being at best mildly obstructive, at worst a closed platform. Just when you wanted to take advantage of the computational prowess of your smartphone you're, well, not allowed to. For example, Sony's PlayMemories and Fuji's CameraRemote only allow you to transfer JPEGs which leaves you using in-camera raw processors of which some are better than others. If that's the case, then camera manufacturers don't want you to do it. Unless of course you happen to want to process you raw file on a smartphone. For everything else there is the malleability of raw. Perhaps more importantly as a shooter, if you need fast write times and a large buffer (such as for sports), then JPEG is the way to go. If you have a raw file from a Nikon Z7 then a client is unlikely to be able to view it, but send them a JPEG and they are happy. Their benefits are accessibility and file size. Shoot for the widest exposure and then process the heck out of it They are your digital negative and give your oodles of latitude to process your images to a desired envisioning. It's a well worn trope and the argument is easily won: for nearly everything, shoot raw files. Every so often, then, you need to get some of those unprocessed raw files on to your phone. You carry that decent camera around with you because you want decent photos.
