CR2 is a graphic file format developed by the manufacturer of camcorders and cameras Canon. This means that all images made by the equipment of this manufacturer are saved by default in CR2 format (short name from Canon Raw Image File). One of the most attractive properties of images of the specified format is their high quality, even if the file is being edited (color balance, contrast, brightness change). Data for the CR2 format image is obtained directly from the matrix. Among the main drawbacks of the format are the large file size, as well as poor compatibility with other software products.
DNG is an open-source raster image format developed by Adobe Systems and an extension of the TIFF 6.0 cross-platform universal format. The name of the format is an abbreviation of Digital NeGative Specification. The novelty was announced by the developer in 2004 as a standard format for RAW files. It is large in size because it contains not only the main image of high quality, but also metadata, as well as several images for preview (lower quality and resolution). Digital photos in this format are stored in uncompressed form.
