DNG is a file format used for archiving RAW image files. The format was developed by Adobe Systems, Inc. in 2004. It is also known as Adobe Digital Negative Raw Image format. DNG files store uncompressed photo files along with additional information about them, such as metadata or color profiles.
CR2 file stores raw image data captured with digital camera matrix developed by Ca non. It is the version 2 of the format. CR2 is a RAW, uncompressed image and therefore can be quite large. CR2 is a proprietary format that stores data in binary.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the DNG file after converting to CR2 may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from DNG to CR2 to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting DNG to CR2 does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in DNG format, properly converted to a CR2 file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file DNG the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of DNG file to other than CR2. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your DNG file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to CR2 on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the DNG file in its original format (without conversion to CR2 file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
