Converting CR2 to EXR does not create transparency by itself.
Camera raw conversion requires decoding, demosaicing, white balance, tone mapping, and encoder choices.
Converting CR2 to EXR decodes the source image and writes a EXR output. Use this route when EXR is a better fit for compatibility, file size, editing, or delivery.
Quality behavior depends on EXR compression: depends.
Choose conversion targets based on EXR compression, transparency, animation, metadata, and compatibility requirements.
Known metadata support: Exif, Canon MakerNotes, XMP sidecars.
