Panasonic RAW/RW2
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
Panasonic RAW/RW2 format is a raw image format used by some Panasonic and Leica digital cameras. It (or some version of it) may also be known as Lumix RAW, or by a camera-specific name such as Panasonic LX3 RAW.
Different cameras produce different versions of it, and at some point the file extension was changed from .raw to .rw2. The term Panasonic RAW might refer to just the .raw files, but more likely includes both .raw and .rw2.
