Converting ARW to BMP does not create transparency by itself.
Camera raw conversion requires decoding, demosaicing, white balance, tone mapping, and encoder choices.
Converting ARW to BMP decodes the source image and writes a BMP output. Use this route when BMP is a better fit for compatibility, file size, editing, or delivery.
Quality behavior depends on BMP compression: uncompressed_or_lossless.
Choose conversion targets based on BMP compression, transparency, animation, metadata, and compatibility requirements.
Known metadata support: Exif, Sony MakerNotes, XMP sidecars.
Common on Windows and many image editors; poor web delivery choice.
