CR2

CR2 is Canon’s older RAW image format used by many EOS cameras to store minimally processed sensor data. It is most useful in photography workflows where image quality, dynamic range, and editing latitude matter more than immediate compatibility.

MIME Type:

image/cr2

Common Uses:

Canon RAW photography, Detailed photo editing, Archival camera originals

Advantages:

  • Preserves rich sensor data for editing
  • Good for color and exposure adjustment
  • Useful as a high-quality photographic source

Disadvantages:

  • Large files compared with final delivery formats
  • Needs RAW-capable software for practical use

JPE

JPE is an alternative file extension for JPEG images and represents the same core image format. It is mainly encountered in compatibility workflows, legacy systems, and older naming conventions rather than as a distinct image type.

MIME Type:

image/jpeg

Common Uses:

Legacy JPEG compatibility, Older software workflows, Alternative JPEG file naming

Advantages:

  • Equivalent to standard JPEG in most cases
