This article explains the pros of converting your raw files to DNG along with some cons. I think converting your files to DNG is a must because it not only makes your files smaller but its universal to use.

this is a really good article on the pros of converting to DNG after reading a couple of other websites about the pros and cons of converting to DNG i decided that i was pro and i think that this artical sums up the pros in a pretty simple and easy to understand way.

I think that this article agrees with the process of converting your photos to DNGs. I highlighted main points made by the author, but basically he listed many reasons why we should convert our photos to DNGs. One of the reasons I think would be the main reason I would convert my photos would be because I could would be able to open my photos in a lot of different softwares, not just Adobe softwares. It would be brilliant if camera manufacturers could use DNG instead of the RAW format. #proDNG

The benefits of DNG makes me personally want to change my work flow. DNG is universal, smaller in size, and is adjustable like an ordinary raw file. Unlike Canon, Sony, and Nikons proprietary RAW formats. DNG is universal and I've seen it used for video and photo. Id make the switch.

This is an article against DNG, I liked it because it clearly goes through what the pros are of DNG but then goes on to say why they still don't like it. They feel that it is weird to throw away the raw files, and while they understand why and are not purely against DNG, they still prefer not to use it.

Converting it to a DNG will make your file universal and smaller in size. It is worth converting to make your work flow a lot easier.

To DNG is the answer. It slightly shrinks the raw file with ought loosing too much data so it is smarter to. Also, converts it from proprietary to a universal which i incredibly useful. DNGs also can be opened with any program which makes them an overall great file format.
