Panasonic Digital Camera Raw Image File (.rw2)
The RW2 file extension stands for Panasonic Digital Camera Raw Image File, primarily used by Panasonic LUMIX cameras. This format captures uncompressed image data directly from the camera's sensor, ensuring high-quality images suitable for professional editing. Introduced with models like the LUMIX LX3 and LX5, RW2 files are based on the TIFF specification and are similar to other raw formats like RAW and RWL. These files can be opened and edited using various software.
