- **The biggest gaps:**
- **camera colour calibration:** Sony, Nikon, Panasonic, Fujifilm and Canon CR3 raws have guarded estimates from their camera JPEGs, with built-in ILCA-99M2, ILCE-7CR, ILCE-7M4, X-H2S, X-T4, Nikon Z 6II, Z 8 and D5300 profiles; measured calibration is missing, and other raws or rejected fits retain a neutral matrix;
- **compressed Olympus raws and unsupported CR3 variants:** these use embedded JPEG previews when present. Fujifilm lossless/lossy compressed RAF now decodes sensor data; [verification and existing-library reload instructions](docs/raf-compression.md);

- **network libraries:** a preview reads the raw's header — or, for a CR3 or a TIFF raw whose preview tag sits past it, exactly the ranges the sparse planner names — and its embedded JPEG only (56.5 MB → 5.9 MB, 10 s → 1 s on the test share), but the *developed* picture still needs the sensor data over the wire; see [docs/raw-preview-reads.md](docs/raw-preview-reads.md);
