[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 525896, member: 9240"] Did some digging and if you convert your RAW files to DNG (I used to - I don't any more) then the changes get stored [I]in[/I] the DNG - no XMP's. Technically that's a "destructive" edit since your DNG is no longer original in that the "last modified date" is different from the "create date". Same thing with JPEG and TIFF files. This becomes an immediate problem if you need to preserve an unedited original for contest verification purposes. Long story short, Lightroom is [I]not[/I] purely a non-destructive editor, and if you need unedited originals always back them up somewhere else. [/QUOTE]
