I think it would be a relatively trivial exercise to extract the data,
given some background to the file format. Presumably RAW is just the
real image (that is what the name suggested. But if the image
actually only amounts to 2.5Mb of real data is seems a trifle dumb
converting it to a 9 Mb RGB tiff when storage is at a premium (bearing
in mind that any software manips that can be done in camera can just
as easily occur in a PC/Mac later. After all: all they are really
doing is guessing the missing colour information form the monochrome
RGBG pixel groups (?) Or is it done that way to enable you to save in
highly lossy jpeg (which certainly can't compress RAW)?
