I downloaded and opened both .DNG and .PEF files with Photoshop CS2/ Camera Raw v3.7. The artifact was clearly visible on the downloaded .DNG, also the color balance differed from the rendering with Camera Raw at its defaults. I used Camera Raw v3.7 to save the .PEF file as a .DNG on my system. The artifact no longer appears and the color balance is identical to the PEF. I also imported all three into a Lightroom 1.3.1 library (functional equivalent of Camera Raw v4.3.1), exported another .DNG from the PEF and reimported it. Same as above .. only the downloaded .DNG file shows an artifact and different color balance.
