Convert CR2 to JPEG — free, private, in your browser
Decoded with ImageMagick WASM, encoded with MozJPEG — entirely on your device. No upload, no queue, no watermark.
Why convert CR2 to JPEG?
Canon RAW files hold everything the sensor saw — and open in almost nothing. This tool develops CR2 files with libraw compiled to WebAssembly and exports JPEGs, all locally: your originals never leave your machine.
How to convert CR2 to JPEG
- 1Drop your CR2 files onto the tool above (or click to browse, or paste from the clipboard). Batches are fine.
- 2JPEG is pre-selected as the output. Adjust the quality slider — 80 is visually lossless for most photos. Optionally cap the maximum dimension to also downscale.
- 3Each file converts in your browser and shows its new size. Download files individually or grab everything as a ZIP.

Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to convert CR2 to JPEG online?+
With EditItAll, your files are never uploaded: decoding and encoding run inside your browser using WebAssembly (ImageMagick compiled to WebAssembly to decode, Squoosh-grade codecs (MozJPEG, libwebp, libavif, libjxl, OxiPNG) to encode). The images stay on your device from start to finish, and the whole thing works offline once the page has loaded.
Will converting CR2 to JPEG lose quality?+
JPEG is a lossy format, so re-encoding discards some information — at quality 80+ the difference is invisible for photos. Use the quality slider to choose the trade-off; nothing else in the pipeline degrades the image.
Is there a file size or count limit?+
No hard limits and no accounts — processing uses your own device's memory and CPU, so very large images are only constrained by your browser (multi-hundred-megapixel images may fail on low-memory devices). Batch as many files as you like; they are processed in sequence.
Can I convert JPEG back to CR2?+
Not in the browser: no WebAssembly encoder exists for CR2. You can convert JPEG to any of: JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, JPEG XL, GIF, TIFF, BMP, ICO, QOI.
