Adobe proposes new digital image format
With every digital camera maker using their own version of the so-called "raw" format to appease high-end photographers, Adobe is proposing that its new Digitial Negative Specification (DNG) is the wave of the future.
To convince you, they've even made a free converter available for both Mac and Windows, which will translate many popular camera's raw formats into Adobe's DNG format.
I'm no Ansel Adams, so it's hard for me to get personally excited by this. But I can see where this would be a Good ThingTM
