Posting RAW Photos to Facebook (CR2/NEF)
You took an amazing shot on your DSLR, but Facebook won't let you upload the CR2 file. Here is why.
1
Browsers Can't Read RAW
Facebook runs in a browser (or a web view app). Browsers do not know how to display raw sensor data. It must be an image first.
2
Develop to JPG
Use the **RAW to JPG** tool. This 'bakes' the color data into a standard image. Ensure you use sRGB color space, as Facebook strips ProPhoto RGB profiles, making images look dull.
