Does converting RAF to JPG lose quality?

JPG is lossy, so some fine detail is discarded to make the file smaller. Raise the quality in Settings for a closer copy.

RAF or JPG: which should I use?

Use RAF for adjusting exposure and white balance with maximum latitude. Use JPG for photos you share, email, print or upload. Keep in mind the main drawback of JPG: no transparency, and every re-save loses a little more detail.

RAF is the RAW format of Fujifilm X-series and GFX cameras. It stores the unprocessed sensor data for maximum editing latitude, so most apps can't show it as a normal picture.

RAF to JPG without Fujifilm film simulations

RAF files come from Fujifilm X-series and GFX cameras and from older FinePix models that offered RAW. Many Fujifilm owners shoot for the film simulations, such as Provia, Velvia, Classic Chrome or Acros, and expect to see them in every converted file. They are not there: a film simulation is applied when the camera makes its own JPG, while this converter develops the RAF from the sensor data using only the recorded white balance and automatic brightness.

So a converted RAF looks more neutral than the in-camera JPG, and an Acros frame comes out in color. If you want the simulation look, the RAW conversion option in the camera's playback menu can make a JPG with any simulation, and a RAW+JPEG shot already has one. Convert here when you need a JPG from a RAF without the camera at hand, or when the simulation doesn't matter.

File size is the other thing to plan for. RAFs from 40-megapixel X-series bodies and GFX cameras are often bigger than 20 MB, the free upload size; Premium accepts files up to 50 MB and Pro up to 120 MB, and files from the 100-megapixel GFX models may be too large to convert at all. After converting, make a 1080 × 1080 square for social feeds or shrink the JPG to about 1 MB.
