[QUOTE="J-see, post: 467575, member: 31330"] [b]Re: RAW or DNG[/b] Here's someone that dived into the DNG compression part. [URL="http://thndl.com/how-dng-compresses-raw-data-with-lossless-jpeg92.html"]How DNG compresses raw data with lossless JPEG92 - ThNdl[/URL] It's fairly good but not 100% accurate and it again shows that everyone of them juggles with lossless but at the same time has their own interpretation of it. Nikon too has a reputation of lossless that in reality has always been [I]visually[/I] lossless. Still, it's not the compression part that bothers me as much as the conversion. This ridiculous concept of guarding NEFs as if they're state secrets and thus forcing everyone else to find out what to and how the data applies inevitable leads to variations and loss between formats.
