CRW to DNG Conversion: FAQ
What are CRW files?
The CRW format is used for creating and storing RAW images using some Canon cameras. RAW images are often favoured by photographers because when shooting in RAW mode the lens captures images that are as close as they can get to what you see with your naked eye. Moreover, they can be strongly edited using digital post-processing and allow a high degree of control for the photographer in what concerns aspects such as color, saturation and filters. However, RAW files can be up to 6 times bigger than JPEG files, thus being difficult to transfer and store.
What are DNG files?
DNG (Digital Negative) is an archival RAW format associated with Adobe Photoshop. The main aim of creating this format was to establish a standardized archival format that is publicly available and widely accessible, and help professional photographers avoid the hassle of constantly converting between the different RAW formats associated with different camera brands. The DNG extension is supported by several types of software manufacturers, including Apple and Google, as well as by a wide array of camera brands, such as Casio, Samsung, Pentax, Ricoh etc.
