What changes when you convert ORF to TIFF
- The ORF is turned into a single finished TIFF picture; extra data a ORF file can hold, such as RAW sensor data, layers or additional images, does not carry over.
- The ORF sensor data is developed into a finished TIFF picture with default settings; the extra room a RAW file gives for later exposure and white-balance edits does not carry over.
- RAW demosaicing is best-effort; results vary by camera.
