Reply To: CR2 or DNG?

[cameraclicker]

“I don’t use Adobe Camera Raw, I use Lightroom and then Photoshop.”  Sometimes I use DPP to convert from CR2 but any time I have used Photoshop or Lightroom with a CR2, the first thing that opens is Adobe Camera Raw.  It is what does the conversion from your raw file.

I hardly ever bother with DNG.  It is just another format.  I like the file the way the camera made it.
