Best Compact Cameras with RAW support

A camera RAW image file contains minimally processed data from the image sensor, which means less loss in image quality and more room for post-processing. All DSLR and Mirrorless cameras can already shoot RAW, so this is a more decisive feature for compact type cameras.

Here we have listed the Best 10 Compact Cameras with RAW support sorted by score. Sony RX1R II is at the top of our list with a Overall Score of 85, followed by Leica Q and Panasonic FZ2500.
