   I don't know about Sony .ARWs, but Nikon .NEFs and Cannon .CR2s both    
   contain embeded jpegs.   
      
   A jpeg is everything between 0xffd8ffdb and 0xffd9, so you just need to    
   find those start and end positions and dump all of that out to a new file.   
      
   Nikon has small, medium and full res jpegs, Cannon has a tiny and full    
   res. I'd expect Sony has something similar.
