Apple has released ProRes RAW beta for Windows. The software enables playback of ProRes RAW and ProRes RAW HQ video files in compatible applications on Windows systems.

For those who aren't sure what ProRes RAW is, it's a video format brings the same great performance, quality, and ease of use to raw video that ProRes has brought to conventional video. When you store a clip in the ProRes RAW format rather than in a proprietary camera raw format, you get more control over the processing of the image, including demosaicing, linear-to-log conversions, and custom LUTs.

According to Apple, here is the list of applications which are compatible with ProRes RAW format: 

• Adobe After Effects (Beta)
• Adobe Media Encoder (Beta)
• Adobe Premiere Pro (Beta)
• Adobe Premiere Rush (Beta)

You can now download the software for your Windows computer by click this link. Noted that this is in beta, so be aware when using it.
