FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO
FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO · Tokyo, Japan · founded 1934
What it is
FUJIFILM X RAW STUDIO converts camera RAW files with the image processor in a connected camera rather than relying on the computer’s performance. A camera must be connected by USB, and it must be the same model that took the RAW file. The software is designed to preserve the camera’s tonality, color reproduction, noise reduction, and Film Simulations; RAW development with the REALA ACE Film Simulation is supported. FUJIFILM says conversion takes nearly the time of taking a photo with the camera. Converted files can be JPEG or TIFF, and the workflow is preset-based. The thumbnail list can be dragged to Explorer, and software such as Photoshop can be activated. It is free for Windows and macOS. Version 1.28.0 is listed for both, last updated October 23, 2025; it can run with macOS Tahoe 26. Windows requirements are Windows 10 or 11 64-bit, with 4 GB or more of RAM recommended. The license limits use to FUJIFILM products and prohibits redistribution, modification, and reverse engineering.
