DNG Converter

Every specialized application, such as CAD and design usually generate their own format. Some similar types of programs accept these files, otherwise conversion is possible. For instance, DNG Converter is a practical tool with which to convert DNG image files to other popular types.

The setup process is uneventful and over before you realize. You get the chance to quickly check out the set of features, with the last step offering to bring up the main window. As far as the visual design is concerned, functions are wrapped around a classic window frame, letting individuals of all levels of experience quickly get the hang of things.

You get to process image files. Input needs to be under the DNG format, and you can load one either through a drag and drop operation, or using the browse dialog, with no dedicated context menu entry created. Unfortunately, batch processing is not a possible operation, and every file you need must be converted one at a time.

Once you manage to find and load the DNG image file, it all goes down to choosing the output format you need. ON the bright side, the application supports some popular formats such as JPG, GIF, PNG, TIF, and BMP. On the downside, you're not able to load these formats to convert them back to DNG, or any other of the aforementioned types.

Before the operation can start, you also need to specify a save location and name for the new file. This is done through paste or the save dialog. Unfortunately, there aren't any quality options to configure, but the application chooses the highest one by default. To always have the tool at hand, you can assign a hotkey command to its shortcut from the default Properties panel.

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that DNG Converter is a practical method of converting DNG image files to standard, popular types which can be enhanced with regular picture processing tools. The visual design is simple, yet intuitive, and even though batch processing is not supported, an operation lasts a little while.
