Andrew,
Again, DNG isn't prefect but it provides a heck of a lot more to some of
us
than the proprietary files we get off the camera. If someone comes up with
a
better solution, that's cool too. So far, no one has.
I can't really see much reason for using DNG currently. My Nefs seem to do
everything that dngs do - store large jpg previews in file (NX stores
full-size, Capture 1/2 size), store rendering instructions in file so no
separate xmps needed, can be used by other programs that look at the
rendered internal jpgs or which use the Nikon sdk to re-render them (such as
iViewMediaPro). The only problem is that Adobe refuses to play ball, and
insists on doing its own thing. [And before anyone mentions the dreaded word
'encryption', remember that Dave Coffin of DcRaw pointed out long ago that
"Phase One, Sony, Foveon, and Canon all apply some form of encryption to
their RAW files".]
I like LR and use it most of the time now for new nef images, despite the
problems. But for older ones, Nikon Capture and iViewMediaPro are still the
programs of choice since LR won't even look at the internal rendered jpgs
(except for briefly during import). But that's what we get with competition!
