Canon RAW (Legacy)
The ancestor of modern Canon raw formats.
CRW (Canon Read/Write) is the original raw image format used by early Canon digital cameras, such as the EOS D30, D60, 10D, and the original Digital Rebel (300D). It predates the CR2 format. Unlike modern raw formats that are typically TIFF-based, CRW uses the CIFF (Camera Image File Format) structure. It often comes paired with a .thm (thumbnail) file, which contains the preview image and metadata.
CRW files store raw sensor data, usually 10-bit or 12-bit. The file structure is quite different from CR2/CR3, organizing data into a heap of 'chunks'. Because it is a legacy format, it does not support modern features like GPS tags or advanced lens profiles natively, though software can apply them in post.
CRW was used from 1997 until 2004. It was replaced by CR2 because CRW had limitations in file size and metadata extensibility.
Icon File
A generic, often ambiguous extension for icon resources.
The `.icon` file extension is a generic identifier for icon images. Unlike the strictly defined `.ico` (Windows Icon), `.icon` is often used in Unix/Linux environments or by tools like ImageMagick as a catch-all alias for various icon formats (including Sun Icon, XBM, or simply renamed ICO files). It is not a standardized format itself but a convention for naming icon resources.
The internal structure of an `.icon` file depends entirely on what created it. It might be a standard Microsoft ICO container with multiple sizes and color depths. It might be a persistent X11 bitmap (XPM). Or it might be a Sun Raster file used for icons on Solaris systems. Because of this ambiguity, it requires a robust viewer that detects format by 'magic bytes' rather than extension.
In the early days of GUI desktops (SunOS, IRIX, early X11), there wasn't a single unified icon standard like Windows .ico. The `.icon` extension served as a descriptive label for files intended to be used as desktop icons, regardless of their underlying binary format.
