What is a DCR file?
DCR is a RAW image format used by Kodak professional and high-end digital cameras. It stores minimally processed sensor data to retain full control over exposure, white balance, and sharpness in post-production.
This format offers high bit depth and detailed color information, especially useful in studio and archival photography. DCR has largely been replaced by more universal RAW formats but is still used in legacy systems.
How to open DCR files
DCR files can be opened with Kodak’s original software, Adobe Photoshop, and compatible tools like Lightroom and RawTherapee. Some image viewers may require plug-ins or conversions to open DCR files properly.
For everyday access or sharing, you can convert DCR to JPG or PNG using AnyConv.

What is a JPG file?
JPG (or JPEG) stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group, the team that created the standard back in the early 1990s. It’s one of the most common image formats in the world, known for compressing digital photos while retaining acceptable quality.
JPG uses lossy compression, which means some image data is discarded during saving. This makes JPG files smaller, ideal for web use, email, and social sharing - but less ideal for images that require fine detail or multiple edits.
How to open JPG files
JPG files can be opened on virtually any device - Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Linux - using default apps like Photos, Preview, or third-party software such as Photoshop and GIMP. Even web browsers can display JPGs natively.
This universal support makes JPG the go-to format for photography, online graphics, and digital documents.
