RAW Camera Photos Transfer Hub
Send Uncompressed RAW Photos to Retouchers & Clients
Professional camera sensors produce 40–100 MB per RAW frame. A shoot with 50 selects is gigabytes of uncompressed sensor data. LimeShare lets photographers transfer pristine RAW files to retouchers with zero compression.

Why standard email fails for RAW Camera Photos
Sending just two uncompressed RAW photos exceeds the 25 MB email limit. Uploading to public cloud links risks copyright theft and metadata stripping.
Cloud Compression Warning: Google Photos and cloud drives frequently alter EXIF metadata or generate lossy previews. LimeShare transfers original sensor RAW files with full EXIF data intact.
Best practices for sending RAW Camera Photos
- Package batch shoot selects into a ZIP file or transfer top selects directly.
- Protect your pre-release commercial shoots with an Argon2id password.
- Use 'Burn after first download' when delivering exclusive client finals.
