File Extension X3F

File type: RAW Picture File

Notes about the X3F file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The X3F file type is primarily associated with 'Sigma Camera' by Sigma. Use the SIGMA Photo Pro software provided with the camera to download and manipulate the photos. The Foveon X3 direct image sensor captures all three colors at every pixel location and requires special software to manipulate the RAW files. Any camera with a Foveon sensor may be able to save and use this format.
