ON1 Photo RAW 2020
ON1 Photo RAW 2020 is a non-destructive RAW image editor and organizer from ON1 Software, designed for photographers who need to process digital photos from DSLR and mirrorless cameras. It offers RAW processing, local and global adjustments, layer-based editing, masking, effects, and a photo browser with metadata management. The 2020 version was a major release that competed with Adobe Lightroom and Capture One, popular among professional and enthusiast photographers for its blend of editing power and workflow efficiency.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionON1 Photo RAW 2020 is a legacy product from 2020 and we found no evidence that ON1 Software has released a native Apple Silicon build of this version. The product line appears to have moved forward to newer major versions (ON1 Photo RAW 2024 and beyond), and the 2020 edition is no longer the current release. Currently the app runs under Rosetta 2 emulation on M-series Macs, but this will stop working when Apple removes Rosetta from macOS 28 in September 2028. Contact ON1 Software directly to confirm whether the 2020 version will receive a native Apple Silicon update, or whether you will need to upgrade to a more recent ON1 Photo RAW version that includes native support. If ON1 does not plan to update the 2020 build, you should budget for an upgrade to their current version well before the September 2028 deadline, or consider moving to another actively maintained RAW editor with confirmed native Apple Silicon support such as Adobe Lightroom Classic, Capture One, or DxO PhotoLab, all of which ship native builds and are regularly updated.
