RAW vs cRAW

[HDNitehawk]

Doing a quick check of the R5 I do not see an option to save in a HEIF format.
However there is a function to convert from HEIF to JPEG.

From what I read compatibility would be the main downfall at this point in time.

So, not something I have used, but pg 137 of the manual (last page of image quality) HDR PQ needs to be enabled (second tab of camera settings menus). Just playing with my R5, that seems to toggle the jpg to HEIF when you go back to Image quality (tab 1 of camera settings menu).

Yes, HEIF is not widely adapted. I ran into that last week as a lab manager sent me some iPhone photos that were HEIF. It took some time for me to convert so I could use in a presentation. So, if convenience is what you are after, Jpeg may still be the best solution.
