How to send RAW camera files
RAW files are large and many apps cannot preview them, so share them as files rather than images.
Keep the originals
Upload the RAW files directly. Include any sidecar files (like .xmp) so edits travel with them.
Estimate size
A modern camera RAW is often 25–60 MB, so 100 photos can be several gigabytes. Check the total against your 5 GB space.
Questions
- Will recipients see previews?
- The download page lists files; they will open RAWs in their own editing software.
