DNG (Digital Negative)
The universal raw format designed to stand the test of time.
DNG (Digital Negative) is an open, royalty-free raw image format developed by Adobe. It was created to solve a major problem in digital photography: every camera manufacturer uses their own proprietary raw format (CR3, NEF, ARW, etc.), and when a new camera comes out, old software can't read its files. DNG acts as a universal container for raw sensor data. It preserves all the original image information—just like a proprietary raw file—but wraps it in a standardized, publicly documented structure. This ensures that your photos will remain readable by software decades from now, even if the camera manufacturer goes out of business.
DNG is based on the TIFF/EP standard. It stores the raw sensor data (Bayer pattern or X-Trans) along with metadata defining how that data should be interpreted (color matrices, white balance, linearization tables). Uniquely, DNG also supports 'Linear DNG' (partially processed/demosaiced data) and 'Lossy DNG' (which applies JPEG-like compression to raw data, significantly reducing file size while retaining raw editing flexibility).
Adobe launched DNG in 2004. While initially met with skepticism, it has been adopted natively by several manufacturers (Leica, Pentax, Hasselblad, and most smartphones including iPhone and Pixel) and is the standard format for mobile raw photography.
Kodak Cineon
A pioneering 10-bit logarithmic format designed by Kodak for digital film scanning and mastering.
The Cineon format (.cin) was developed by Kodak in the early 1990s as part of their Cineon Digital Film System. It was designed to capture the full dynamic range of film negatives. Unlike standard linear image formats, Cineon stores data in a 10-bit logarithmic density format, which closely mimics the response of film to light. This allows it to preserve highlight and shadow details that would be lost in linear 8-bit formats.
Cineon files use 10 bits per color channel (Red, Green, Blue), packed into 32-bit words (with 2 bits of padding). The key feature is the logarithmic encoding: pixel values represent printing density rather than linear brightness. A value of roughly 95 represents 'D-min' (clear film base), and the values scale up to represent increasing density. This allows the format to store a dynamic range that exceeds standard video formats.
Introduced in 1993, the Cineon system was the first end-to-end 4K digital intermediate workflow for motion pictures. While the hardware system was discontinued in 1997, the file format became the industry standard for visual effects and digital mastering until it was eventually superseded by the more flexible DPX (Digital Picture Exchange) format, which is directly based on Cineon.
