What is an ORF file?
ORF (Olympus Raw Format) is the proprietary RAW image format used by Olympus and OM System digital cameras. ORF files are produced by cameras including the OM System OM-1, OM-1 Mark II, OM-5, and legacy Olympus models like the E-M1 Mark III, E-M1X, E-M5 Mark III, and the PEN series. ORF files store unprocessed 12-bit or 16-bit sensor data from Micro Four Thirds sensors, preserving the full dynamic range and color depth captured by the camera. File sizes typically range from 12-25 MB depending on the sensor resolution and compression settings.
ORF vs JPG — What's the difference?
ORF files store unprocessed sensor data with up to 16 bits of color depth and a dynamic range of 11-13 stops, while JPG is limited to 8 bits per channel with lossy compression. ORF preserves shadow and highlight details that JPG permanently discards, allowing photographers to recover underexposed or overexposed areas in post-processing. JPG files are dramatically smaller and can be viewed on any device, making them essential for sharing and web use.
When should you convert ORF to JPG?
Convert ORF to JPG when you need to share your Olympus or OM System photos via email, social media, or web galleries. JPG conversion is necessary for uploading to photo sharing platforms, creating client galleries, submitting to print services, or archiving finished photos in a universally compatible format. If you have completed your RAW editing, JPG provides the ideal output format for distribution.

Will I lose quality converting ORF to JPG?
ORF files contain more data than JPG can represent, so some dynamic range is reduced. However, our converter produces high-quality JPGs at 85% quality that look excellent for sharing, printing, and web use.
Which cameras use ORF?
ORF is used by all Olympus and OM System cameras, including the OM-1, OM-1 Mark II, OM-5, E-M1 Mark III, E-M1X, E-M5 Mark III, E-P7, and the entire PEN series.
What about OM System's newer cameras?
OM System cameras (the brand that succeeded Olympus cameras) continue to use the ORF format. The OM-1, OM-1 Mark II, and OM-5 all produce ORF files that are fully supported by this converter.
