Convert NEF to PNG — free, private, in your browser
Decoded with ImageMagick WASM, encoded with OxiPNG — entirely on your device. No upload, no queue, no watermark.
Why convert NEF to PNG?
Convert NEF (nikon raw files. develop to jpeg or png right in your browser) to PNG — PNG opens everywhere, while NEF has limited support, and the conversion can preserve every pixel. Drop files below: decoding and encoding run entirely in your browser via WebAssembly, so images are never uploaded to a server.
How to convert NEF to PNG
- 1Drop your NEF files onto the tool above (or click to browse, or paste from the clipboard). Batches are fine.
- 2PNG is pre-selected as the output. PNG is lossless, so there is no quality to lose. 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 NEF to PNG 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 NEF to PNG lose quality?+
No. PNG is lossless: every pixel of the decoded NEF is preserved exactly.
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 PNG back to NEF?+
Not in the browser: no WebAssembly encoder exists for NEF. You can convert PNG to any of: JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, JPEG XL, GIF, TIFF, BMP, ICO, QOI.
