What is Digital Negative RAW?
A camera RAW format developed into raster pixels by a compatible decoder; camera and compression variants affect support.
Server conversion requires a compatible engine we host and a verified file variant.
Technical details
DNG is a TIFF/EP-related format for storing and interchanging camera RAW images; a DNG may also contain a JPEG secondary representation. [1]
Background and compatibility
Adobe designed Digital Negative as a documented interchange format across camera-RAW workflows; it remains distinct from each manufacturer's native RAW extension. [1]
