How to Convert CR2 to PNG Image in Bulk

CR2 is Canon's RAW format, storing full sensor data for maximum editing flexibility. When you need a lossless, widely compatible export instead of a heavily compressed one, PNG is the better target — useful for archival copies, further editing in other software, or graphics work where no compression artifacts are acceptable.

Photographers shooting in CR2 often end up with hundreds of files per shoot, organized across multiple session folders. Converting them one by one isn't practical. A bulk CR2 to PNG converter processes the entire shoot in one pass, including nested sub-folders, without any of your files leaving your computer.

1. Install Batchify Image Converter and Resizer Pro, which natively supports CR2 among its 47 RAW formats.
2. Open the app and select Batch Mode to process a full folder of CR2 files at once.
3. Drag your CR2 folder into the app, enabling recursive sub-folder scanning if your shoot spans multiple session folders.
4. Set the input format to CR2 and the output format to PNG.
5. Optionally apply resizing during the same step if you need specific output dimensions.
6. Click Convert. The app demosaics each CR2 file locally and writes lossless PNG files to your output folder.

• Native CR2 decoding built in, no Canon software required
• Lossless PNG output preserves full detail with no compression artifacts
• Bulk-convert an entire shoot's worth of CR2 files in one batch
• Recursive folder scanning for multi-session shoot structures
• Fully offline, ideal for unreleased or client photo work
• Multi-core processing for fast handling of large batches
