Convert SR2 to TIF

The SR2 file extension stands for "Sony RAW 2", a format used by Sony digital cameras to store uncompressed image data. Introduced in December 2005 with the Sony DSC-R1 model, SR2 files capture raw image data directly from the camera's sensor, preserving maximum detail and dynamic range for post-processing. This format is favored by professional photographers for its flexibility in editing and superior image quality compared to compressed formats. SR2 is part of Sony's suite of RAW formats, which also includes SRF and ARW.

TIF, short for Tagged Image File Format, is a flexible and adaptable file format that was introduced in the mid-1980s by Aldus Corporation, now Adobe Systems. Primarily used for storing high-quality raster graphics and images, TIF files are widely adopted in professional environments such as graphic design, medical imaging, and desktop publishing due to their support for lossless compression and extensive metadata capabilities. The format's longevity and adaptability have made it a staple in image archiving and complex image editing tasks, ensuring consistency and high resolution across various platforms and applications.
