Adobe DNG Converter Description

Converts files to DNG

Raw file formats are becoming extremely popular in digital photography workflows because they offer creative professionals greater creative control. However, cameras can use many different raw formats - the specifications for which are not publicly available - which means that not every raw file can be read by a variety of software applications. As a result, the use of these proprietary raw files as a long-term archival solution carries risk, and sharing these files across complex workflows is even more challenging.

The solution to this growing problem is Digital Negative (DNG), a publicly available archival format for the raw files generated by digital cameras. By addressing the lack of an open standard for the raw files created by individual camera models, DNG helps ensure that photographers will be able to access their files in the future.

Within a year of its introduction, several dozen software manufacturers such as Extensis, Canto, Apple, and iView developed support for DNG. And respected camera manufacturers such as Hasselblad, Leica, Casio, Ricoh, and Samsung have introduced cameras that provide direct DNG support. Learn more

In addition to the Digital Negative Specification, Adobe provides the free Adobe DNG Converter (Windows | Mac OS), which easily translates raw files from many of today's popular cameras. Software developers and manufacturers can download the complete DNG Specification (PDF, 486k). DNG is supported by Adobe Photoshop CS5, CS4, CS3, CS2, and CS, as well as Photoshop Elements 8, 7, 6, 4, and 3.

Key benefits
Key benefits for photographers:

* DNG format helps promote archival confidence, since digital-imaging software solutions will be able to open raw files more easily in the future.
* A single raw processing solution enables a more efficient workflow when handling raw files from multiple camera models and manufacturers.
* A publicly documented and readily available specification can be easily adopted by camera manufacturers and updated to accommodate technology changes.

Key benefits for hardware and software manufacturers:

* DNG removes a potential barrier to new camera adoption, since raw files from new models will be immediately supported by Photoshop and other applications.
* The DNG format allows R&D savings by reducing the need to develop new formats and by simplifying camera testing.
* A common format allows greater control over the quality of conversions by third-party applications.
* The specification allows the addition of private metadata to DNG files, enabling differentiation.
