About the ARW format
ARW (Sony Alpha Raw)
ARW is recorded by Sony Alpha cameras and other Sony cameras with RAW support. The file holds the sensor data before processing and an embedded preview, so it is several times larger than a JPG but lets you correct exposure and white balance with much more room.
Websites, messengers and most phones can't open ARW. Here the photo is developed automatically with default settings and saved as JPG or PNG; EXIF metadata is not carried over. A file can't be saved as ARW - it's a camera format.
Best for shooting with room for editing in Lightroom, darktable and other RAW editors.
