ARW is the RAW format of Sony Alpha cameras. Like all RAW formats it preserves everything the sensor captured and opens in almost nothing. EditItAll develops ARW files locally in your browser and exports JPEG, PNG or WebP — handy when you need to share a frame fast and your editing machine is elsewhere.
