When a Sony Digital Camera captures a digital photo, the digital photo file uses the SR2 file extension. SR2 files are usually known as CCD-Sensor RAW Data Files which means the files are uncompressed and can only be processed using the computer instead of in dark rooms. A camera’s CCD can capture SR2 files and these files play a part in touch-ups as well as camera shooting corrections since they are imported into programs used for image manipulation. SR2 files are the files that save detected data and report it to the sensor's single photo-receptive elements’ geometry. SR2 files contain a pattern that consists of a short file header wherein the file’s byte recording is indicated as well as a file identifier and a main data file offset. Common operating systems such as Windows, MAC OS and Linux can open SR2 files with the use of a supported digital photo and image editing application.how to open a .sr2 file?
Launch a .sr2 file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .sr2 file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .sr2 files aren't yet associated with it.

Be careful not to rename the extension on .sr2 files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .sr2. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.leave a comment
