Convert CR2 to MTS

There are strong reasons to convert CR2 to MTS:

Eco-friendly: Smaller MTS Video files mean less bandwidth consumption and lower energy usage during file transfers — a small but meaningful environmental benefit.

Client requirements: Clients, vendors, or regulatory bodies often specify MTS Video as the required delivery format for image content.

Cloud storage efficiency: MTS Video's smaller file size means lower cloud storage costs — important for large collections.

Workflow integration: When your pipeline requires MTS Video input, converting from Canon RAW is the most reliable bridge between the two environments.

Universal viewer support: Nearly every operating system includes a built-in viewer for MTS Video, eliminating the need for third-party applications.

Converting CR2 to MTS with Xonvert is straightforward:

1. Upload your file — Drag your CR2 file into the converter area above, or click to browse your file system.
2. Review the preview — Xonvert shows a preview of your file before conversion so you can verify it loaded correctly.
3. Adjust output settings — Fine-tune quality, dimensions or format-specific options using the settings panel.
4. Download the MTS result — Processing takes seconds. Your converted file downloads directly to your device.

Pixel dimensions, aspect ratio, and DPI information transfer directly between formats. When converting from Canon RAW to MTS Video, some quality trade-off occurs due to lossy compression, but Xonvert uses optimal settings to minimize any visible degradation. Canon RAW retains all original data. Converting to MTS Video applies its own compression algorithm, which may introduce minor artifacts at very low quality settings. Xonvert selects parameters that maximize quality for the target format.

Converting a static Canon RAW image to MTS Video video format creates a single-frame video file. This is useful for creating video slideshows, adding images to video editing timelines, or preparing content for platforms that only accept video formats. The output will contain your image as a still frame with the duration and framerate you specify.

Compression trade-off: Your lossless CR2 source retains all original data. Converting to lossy MTS will reduce file size substantially, but some data is permanently discarded. Use the quality slider to balance file size against fidelity.

Common scenarios for CR2 to MTS conversion:

• Print preparation — Converting to MTS may be necessary when submitting files to print services or publishers.
• Conference submissions — Academic and professional conferences specify accepted formats. MTS is commonly required for image submissions.
• Platform upload requirements — Social media and cloud platforms often accept MTS — converting from CR2 meets their requirements.
