Canon to support Adobe's .dng format?


Posted within the last 3 hours on the OpenRaw.org webpage... however it was not noted where or just when Mr. Westfall made this comment.


"Canon Consumer Imaging Group Director Chuck Westfall presented the camera vendor perspective. Mr. Westfall compared two possible solutions for raw data; proprietary and open standards. While making it clear that Canon intended to keep its RAW data recording methods proprietary, Mr. Westfall stated that Adobe's DNG file format has excellent features for archival storage and added that Canon might consider the possibility of adding DNG support in future versions of RAW image conversion software."

The operative word here, is "might"... but it shows that Adobe's .dng format is gaining support.
