Frequently Asked Questions about DNG

What is DNG and why should I use it?

DNG (Digital Negative) is Adobe open RAW format designed as a universal alternative to proprietary formats like CR2, NEF, and ARW. Using DNG ensures long-term compatibility so your files will remain readable even if a camera manufacturer stops supporting their format.

Can I convert CR2 or NEF to DNG without losing quality?

Yes. DNG conversion is lossless and preserves the full sensor data from the original RAW file. Contenta Converter PREMIUM can batch convert CR2, NEF, ARW, and other RAW formats to DNG while preserving all metadata.

Can Contenta Converter open iPhone ProRAW DNG files?

Yes. It decodes Apple ProRAW DNG files and converts them to JPG, TIFF or PNG, a whole folder at a time.
