CR2 at a glance

CR2

Convert to CR2 when preserving Canon originals or maintaining a workflow that expects Canon raw files.

It is useful for archive retention, raw editing, and non-destructive photo finishing.

OGA at a glance

OGA

Convert to OGA when you want an explicitly audio-only Ogg-based file for open-format distribution, archival packaging, or technical workflows that use Vorbis, Opus, or FLAC inside Ogg.

It is useful for podcasts, spoken-word files, and music in open-source environments.

For the widest casual compatibility, MP3 or M4A remain safer defaults.
