CR3 is Canon's newer RAW format, introduced alongside their mirrorless camera lineup and built on a more modern container structure than the older CR2 format, while still storing the same kind of unprocessed sensor data. CR3 files require demosaicing before they're viewable, and since they're not supported by browsers, photo viewers, or social platforms, converting to JPG is necessary anytime a CR3 photo needs to be shared or viewed outside specialized RAW software.
Converting CR3 to JPG performs that demosaicing and compresses the result into a small, universally compatible file, which is the standard step once a Canon mirrorless shoot has been edited and is ready for delivery or sharing.
