Questions

About converting NEF to JPG.

Does the JPG keep the full resolution of my NEF?

Yes. The image keeps its full pixel size unless you set a width or height.

Which JPG quality is used?

The JPG is saved at quality 90 by default. You can set any value from 1 to 100, lower values give smaller files.

Do I need an account?

No. Up to 50 files a day work without an account, and the results have no watermark.

What happens to my files after the conversion?

Your files are processed on servers in the EU and deleted automatically after 24 hours.
