Description
A plea...
Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in
users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free
download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring
in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna

JpegDigger v1.3.0.1

JpegDigger is a simple utility to extract JPEG files from corrupt RAW files.

What is JpegDigger?

JpegDigger is kind of a ‘dumb’ tool. Without any knowledge of the internal structures of RAW files it will examine the file for JPEG headers. It does not decode the RAW files.

To support the different proprietary RAW image file formats it uses several JPEG signatures (magic numbers). I determined those manually examining the different RAW files using a hex editor. Once it finds JPEG data, it opens a file and dumps the binary data to this file and saves it with a JPG extension.

Changelog:
1.3.0.1 (Jan 9, 2019) – Removed UPX compression due to many AV false positives.



File is a standalone EXE. No Setup. JpegDigger is free of viruses, malware or other crapware.

Supported RAW files
Brand Extension
Nikon .NEF
Canon .CR2, CRW
Olympus .ORF
Sony .ARW
Samsung .SRW
Pentax .PEF
Adobe .DNG
Hasselblad .3FR
Fuji .RAF
Lumix .RW2

If the format your camera shoots isn’t listed here you can email me an intact file. I will examine the file and if possible add support for it.

Using JpegDigger

JpegDigger is very easy to use:
Select the location of the corrupt RAW files. JpegDigger will automatically create a output folder in the directory as well. It is therefor advised to store the corrupt files on your hard drive rather than a memory card.



Select folder containing corrupt RAW files



Select scan depth. All files I tested went fine with the default setting. You also need to select the file extension. JpegDigger now examines the RAW files and see if there are any JPG files to extract. A file can of course be too corrupt.



Set JepgDigger scan settings





JpegDigger examines the files and creates JPEGs





JpegDigger is done. It will open output folder after clicking OK



Why JpegDigger?

JpegDigger was created out of an immediate need. Because of My Jpeg repair service people also contact me to ask if I can repair corrupt RAW image format files. I can not at this time, nor do I have the time to investigate these file formats.

It is common knowledge that a lot of RAW image files contain embedded JPEGs and for some that is better than nothing at all. For those people I was able to Extract JPEG files from RAW image files on several occasions. I use a hex editor for that. Some times I do it for free (for a few files), normally I charge the ‘Low Res Preview’ extraction fee (see).

At some point I had to do a huge load of .NEF (Nikon RAW files) so I decided it was time to put together a utility (JpegDigger) to process all .NEF files in a given directory.
