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.
