Adobe DNG Converter for Windows – Full Version

Overview of Adobe DNG Converter

the Adobe DNG Converter, a free utility that converts files from more than 350 cameras to DNG, enables you to easily convert camera-specific raw files to a more universal DNG raw file.

Digital Negative was developed to address the lack of an open standard for the proprietary and unique raw files created by each digital camera. DNG allows photographers to archive their raw camera files in a single format for easy cataloging and access in the future. With the format specification freely available, any developer can build software that supports and takes advantage of DNG.

Features of Adobe DNG Converter

For photographers:

DNG format helps promote archival confidence since digital imaging software solutions will quickly open raw files.
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 quickly adopted by camera manufacturers and updated to accommodate technology changes.

For hardware and software manufacturers:

• DNG removes a potential barrier to new camera adoption since Photoshop and other applications will immediately support raw files from new models.
• The DNG format allows R&D savings by reducing the need to develop new formats and simplifying camera testing.
• A standard 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.
