GGMM (Good Golly Miss Molly) He has used “non reversible”, a Geeky term, to accurately completely debunk the claim of recovering the raw data. Actually, nearly every processing step done by the camera before JPEG compression are non reversible even if you knew the propriety algorithms used.


The compression is the easily reversible part as long as you save at 100%. it’s all that other processing that discards the data.

The jpg compression is lossy and is therefore irreversible.

Like trying to turn a baked cake back into flour, milk, sugar and eggs, especially so you can then adjust the amount of sugar in the cake.

A jpeg is a compressed 8-bit file. A CR2 is a 16-bit file. Watch this to get a better understanding of what everyone is talking about: https://youtu.be/cbZ-gjeYtZo
