RAW format support

Anyone know when will RAW support for the Sony Alpha 7 Mark 4 come out for iPad OS? If no, is there anyway I can edit RAW files from my a7iv on my iPad?

iPad Air, iPadOS 15

RAW is a generic term that refers to unprocessed image data captured directly from the Camera image sensor. Different Camera manufacturers RAW formats differ. It follows that the camera that took the photograph will be able to display the image - but other devices must have explicit support for the explicit image format.

This support page details the RAW formats natively supported by iPadOS15.

You may find that some Apps support a wider range of RAW formats. Perhaps consider Stratopherix FileBrowser - Document Manager, or its “pro version” FileBrowser Professional:
