Hi Albano,
I just did some test conversions with V3.2 of DNG converter. The file
still retains lens focal length information if not the actual lens that
was used - but only the Pentax software provided that anyway.
What does annoy me is that I asked it to store a full size preview in
the file. the preview was only 1024x684, not the 3008x2008 that I am
used to. I use BreezeBrowser for sorting through images and I often use
the function to view the full size embedded jpeg in the PEF files to
check focus etc. I can't manage with a preview that is only 1024 wide.

Hi gang,
I'm thinking in converting my raw files to dng 3.2,
using these settings: keep raw image, don't embed
original, compressed lossless.
I'm thinking in keeping just the dngs, to save space,
since they weight almost half than raws, and I think
they'll be more age-surviving as a format.
Do you think I should keep the originals files too?
There's room for improvement in the dng format?
Insights welcome
