Both formats, briefly
ARWIN
ARW is the raw file from Sony Alpha and Cyber-shot cameras. It keeps the full sensor output, typically 12 or 14 bits per channel against the 8 bits a JPG gives you, and that headroom is what lets you lift shadows or rescue highlights afterwards without banding. Sony's own software and the main raw editors open ARW. Ordinary viewers, phones and upload forms often do not, which is the point at which you need a converted copy.
AVIFOUT
AVIF applies the AV1 video codec to still images. At the same visual quality it generally produces smaller files than JPG or WebP, and it handles transparency, high dynamic range, wide color and animation. The limits are decode speed and older software: current browsers cope, while an image tool from a few years back may not open the file at all. Use it for web delivery where bandwidth counts and you can serve a JPG fallback.
