I'm not a professional photographer and still learning to tinker around the RAW files through post processing tools after i got my DJI MINI 2 drone. RawTherapee (Post processing photography tool):.However if the file is already in 'compressed' format for example JPG/JPEG then all essential pixel data needed for processing already lost and you might not get much enhanced quality as good as bigger uncompressed file size of RAW file. *This processing tool will work on any image format. There so many RAW file format which includes IIQ (Phase One), 3FR (Hasselblad), DCR, K25, KDC (Kodak), CRW CR2 CR3 (Canon), ERF (Epson), MEF (Mamiya), MOS (Leaf), NEF NRW (Nikon), ORF (Olympus), PEF (Pentax), RW2 (Panasonic), ARW, SRF, SR2 (Sony) and also *.DNG (Digital Negative Images by Adobe) which is the one we're going discuss now since its output by DJI drone camera for our hobby.
