Creative Looks<br>The look you shot is the look that opens.
Pick FL in-camera and the RAW opens flat back at your desk. The look you chose stays behind in the EVF. RevelRaw reads the Creative Look recorded in your .ARW and applies it the moment the photo opens: FL, VV, ST, all ten, matched and ready to fine-tune. No profile hunting, no rebuilding your look from a histogram.

AI Denoise<br>Keep the detail when the light runs out.
Push the ISO and you trade clean shadows for grain. The neural model runs on your Mac's own chip, never your photos uploaded to a server, clearing luminance and color noise while it keeps the fine texture you shot for. You set the strength; it renders at full resolution, offline.

Every major brand<br>Whatever you shoot, it opens here.
Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Panasonic, Olympus — and a dozen brands beyond: 24 RAW formats open to the same AI scene detection, presets and fine-tune controls. Sony shooters get one extra courtesy — an .ARW arrives with its Creative Look read from the file and already applied. See every format RevelRaw opens.
