How to recover Canon/Nikon/Sony/Olympus/Fuji/Kodak/Pentax/Simga/Leica deleted/lost raw image files?

Raw file format is an image file format used by many high-end and professional digital cameras. Raw files are considered to be the best form of an image file, since it does not process the picture, leaving total control of the editing to the user. RAW file size is much larger than that of .JPEG files but slightly smaller than .TIF files. RAW image files can be edited by Adobe Photoshop and Corel Paintshop Pro. RAW image files can be converted to .JPEG or .TIF by using ReaConverter.

Some RAW files have the RAW file extension, most often a camera will give their RAW files different extensions and usually their own specific format. For example, Canon uses either .CRW or .CR2, Nikon use .NEF, Sony uses .ARW, Olympus uses .ORF, Fuji uses .RAF, Kodak uses .KDC, Pentax uses .PEF, Sigma uses .X3F and Leica uses .DNG.
