Adobe Announces CinemaDNG

Adobe announced today at the NAB show in Las Vegas the organization of a Foundation centered around the new CinemaDNG (digital negative) format.

CinemaDNG will be an open standard, the idea is to eliminate incompatibilities between different hardware and software manufacturers with differing file formats thereby streamlining digital cinema creation.

Likewise an open standard will also benefit camera manufacturers who adopt the standard by ensuring that new models are immediately compatible existing workflows.

By providing an open standard the CinemaDNG foundation hopes to make the adoption of RAW digital camera data much easier.
