Originally posted by newmikey I'm fine with anyone using DNG, to be honest. Just not with people who claim it is more "future-proof" than PEF - that's baloney and FUD.
How is storing image data, in an open file format, in any way NOT future proof? Given the overwhelming number of canon, Nikon, Sony, and Olympus users out there who are also using DNG, you also have strength in numbers (compared to Pentax, which by all accounts is a fairly small market share). Arguing in favour of PEF over DNG as a long term archival format is a bit of stretch imho.
