DNG or DIE!

I'm sure the latest news from Adobe will rub some digi-cam manufacturers RAW. Adobe has proposed a new file format, called DNG—Digital Negative, that I'm sure isn't merely a proposal, but an offer they can't refuse.

What Adobe is implementing is a file standard similar to JPG. RAW files produced with this new standard would then be tagged with a .dng file format that wouldn't require manufacturer's software for processing.

It does make sense. There is nothing worse than having NEF, CR2, 3F file formats and have to use different pieces of software to view, process & print.

DNG or die. Resistance is futile.
