Digital Negative (.dng)

The Digital Negative (DNG) file extension, developed by Adobe Systems and introduced in 2004, is an open, lossless raw image format designed for digital photography. DNG aims to provide a standardized format for raw files, ensuring compatibility across various software and hardware platforms. It is based on the TIFF/EP standard and incorporates extensive metadata, making it suitable for long-term archival purposes. DNG files are widely supported by numerous camera manufacturers and software applications, facilitating efficient storage, sharing, and editing of high-quality images.
