FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
What photographers ask before sending a shoot to a client.
Yes, LargeFileTransfer sends CR3, NEF, ARW, and DNG files without compression or re-encoding at every plan tier, including Free. RAW files remain RAW, with originals arriving exactly as sent.
No, recipients only need the transfer link to download their files, so clients can access their photos without creating an account. Paid plans also let photographers add a password for additional control over file access.
Interrupted uploads resume from where they stopped instead of starting over, so a dropped Wi-Fi connection or accidentally closed browser tab does not force you to re-upload the entire transfer.
Free transfer links remain active for up to 3 days, while paid plans let photographers choose an expiry of up to one year or keep links active indefinitely. This gives photographers more control over how long clients can access delivered files.
All files are encrypted both in transit and at rest, while paid plans also support password-protected transfers. This protects files while they move between devices and while they remain stored on LargeFileTransfer servers.
No, LargeFileTransfer never compresses or re-encodes files at any plan tier, including Free. Full-resolution photos and RAW files such as CR3, NEF, ARW, and DNG arrive exactly as uploaded.
