DNG is Adobe's open raw format, published in 2004 and based on TIFF/EP, and it's now the most widely produced raw format there is — largely because it isn't only cameras writing it. Leica's M, Q and SL bodies output DNG natively, as do Ricoh and Pentax, Sigma's fp, and DJI drones. More significantly, an iPhone shooting Apple ProRAW writes DNG, and so do Android phones in raw mode, which means a lot of DNG files now come from a pocket rather than a camera bag. DNG also serves as an escape hatch: Adobe's free DNG Converter turns unreadable proprietary raws into DNG so older software can open them.

Because the spec requires a full-size embedded preview, DNG is the most reliable raw format to convert. It runs entirely in your browser, which matters more than usual for phone photos since they carry location data. Camera-specific originals convert with the CR3, NEF or ARW tools, or all together with RAW to JPG.

Good to know

DNG is the most dependable raw format here, because the specification requires a full-size embedded preview — so even in the rare case where a full demosaic isn't possible, you still get a complete, full-resolution image.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Apple ProRAW files are DNG, and they convert here like any other. This is the usual reason people need it: ProRAW gives you a 12-bit raw file that most upload forms, messaging apps and print services simply refuse.

A ProRAW frame is typically 25–75 MB against 2–4 MB for a JPG from the same phone, because it stores the full sensor readout instead of a compressed image. That's what makes it editable — and what makes it impractical to send.

Leica M, Q and SL bodies, Ricoh and Pentax, Sigma fp, DJI drones, iPhones shooting ProRAW, and Android phones in raw mode. Adobe's DNG Converter also produces DNG from other manufacturers' raw files.

Yes, if you might edit the shot again. The DNG holds far more tonal information than the JPG, which is what lets you recover a blown sky or lift shadows without the image falling apart. The JPG is for sending and posting.

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser — which matters more than usual for phone photos, since they carry location data.
