This is because the CR2 is a raw image file from a professional camera. If you think of \u003Ca href=\"\u002Fblog\u002Fimage-file-types\u002F\">image file types\u003C\u002Fa> as a process, the CR2 would be the beginning of the process. The PSD would be the end of the process. The middle stage would involve converting from the CR2, then editing and saving as a PSD. There’s simply no way, manual or otherwise, to perform this conversion.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CR2 is an exact representation of the original photograph snapped from a Canon camera. Because it is raw and untouched, a PSD cannot convert into it. Think of a CR2 like a vinyl musical record. For this example, the PSD is a guitar. The guitar can play noises that ultimately end up on a record, but you can’t turn a guitar itself into a vinyl record. This is essentially the process of converting a PSD to a CR2.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\u003Cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F11\u002F19193219\u002Fconvert-psd-to-cr2-2.jpg\" alt=\"A vintage record player.\" class=\"wp-image-37148\" srcset=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F11\u002F19193219\u002Fconvert-psd-to-cr2-2.jpg 800w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F11\u002F19193219\u002Fconvert-psd-to-cr2-2-450x300.jpg 450w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2019\u002F11\u002F19193219\u002Fconvert-psd-to-cr2-2-768x512.jpg 768w\" \u002F>\u003Cfigcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The CR2 is like a record.

In fact, there are a couple ways to accomplish this. The first way is by using a browser-based conversion tool. These programs are perfect for users who only need to convert a limited number of files. They also are practical for those with not much hard drive space available. One such conversion tool \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fconvertio.co\u002Fcr2-psd\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Convertio\u003C\u002Fa>, a system with a smooth interface and fast upload speeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The other method of conversion involves downloading and installing a program onto your computer. This is best for users who don’t always have internet access or have limited access. An installed system converts the files without requiring the internet. Also, an installed system is great for users with a large quantity of files they need converted. These types of systems let users convert files in bulk. I recommend the \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.batchimageconverter.com\u002Fimage-converter\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PearlMountain Image Converter\u003C\u002Fa> for an installation-based system.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There’s no way to convert a PSD to a CR2 but you don’t need to anyway.
