“Support for RAW photos is a bit disappointing since all Stellar Repair for Photo does is extract embedded JPEG data.” Medium · Joep van Steen · 7 years ago Key Limitations

: Beyond standard JPEGs, the tool supports a wide array of RAW formats (e.g., CR2, NEF, ARW) and even modern formats like HEIC.

: For severely damaged files, the "Advanced Repair" option allows users to provide a "sample file" taken with the same device and settings. This helps the software reconstruct missing metadata and headers more accurately.
