The first way involves using browser-based converters. This method is perfect for users who only need to convert a limited amount of files. A browser-based system lets users use a browser for the entire conversion. It’s particularly ideal for users with limited hard drive space. All it takes is sufficient internet access to upload and download files, starting with the CR2 and finishing with the AI file. I recommend \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fconvertio.co\u002Fcr2-ai\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Convertio\u003C\u002Fa> because of it’s fast download speeds and easy-to-use interface.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second way to convert is by using a system that installs to your computer. This approach is great for people who have a large quantity of files to convert. A computer-based system allows users to take a large batch of files and convert them all at once. It’s specifically designed to benefit those with limited or slow internet access, as it doesn’t require an internet connection to use. Finally, it’s better for security reasons, as you don’t have to upload any files to the internet to convert. For this type of conversion I recommend \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.reaconverter.com\u002Fconvert\u002Fcr2_to_ai.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ReaConverter\u003C\u002Fa>, a fast system with a smooth interface.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter wp-image-37316\">\u003Cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"779\" height=\"441\" src=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F11\u002F19193156\u002Fconvert-cr2-to-ai-2.jpg\" alt=\"Colors converting into a light in space.\" class=\"wp-image-37316\" srcset=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F11\u002F19193156\u002Fconvert-cr2-to-ai-2.jpg 779w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F11\u002F19193156\u002Fconvert-cr2-to-ai-2-450x255.jpg 450w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F11\u002F19193156\u002Fconvert-cr2-to-ai-2-768x435.jpg 768w\" \u002F>\u003Cfigcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Make sure to compare the different ways to convert.\u003C\u002Ffigcaption>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"toc-4--why-convert\">Why convert?\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CR2 is typically the first step in the process of digital photography. Essentially, anyone who takes photos extensively with the Canon camera will eventually want to edit them digitally. They need to upload them to a computer to do so, which results in the CR2 file type. However, even though this is a high resolution file that represents the exact photo taken, it’s not in an editable format.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The AI file, on the other hand, has editing potential and can further build images into things such as logos. Furthermore, the AI is a much more reasonably-sized file format. This is essential for someone who wishes to share or upload a large quantity of CR2 files at once, since they’re so massive in size it would be difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CR2 is one of many fantastic \u003Ca href=\"\u002Fblog\u002Fimage-file-types\u002F\">image file types\u003C\u002Fa> for maintaining the original quality and depiction of a photograph. However, it’s not functional for editing or practical for sharing.
