Convert RW2 to VIFF

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.

The Khoros Visualization Image File Format (VIFF), developed by AccuSoft Corporation, is a bitmap image format used primarily within the Khoros software environment for scientific and engineering applications. It supports various image types, including grayscale, color, and multi-spectral images, making it useful for visualizing complex datasets. Despite its powerful capabilities, VIFF is now considered somewhat obsolete due to the emergence of newer, more versatile image formats. However, it remains an important part of the history of image processing and visualization technologies.
