And at the end of the import it will tell you that it didn't convert them to DNG after all :-) At least that is what LR4 does for my photos from the WG2.

PreviewExporter by Rob Cole <http://www.robcole.com/Rob/ProductsAndServices/PreviewExporterLrPlugin/> I've run the recovery option on one of my folders in LR3 and now have JPG copies of all the previews in the folder but one. I've exported the JPGs and am ready to try import them into LR5. I've pointed LR to the folder containing the JPGs but LR is telling me it will copy the files as DNGs. Since these are JPGs I'm guessing I don't want to do that. Perusing the Adobe documentation on importing I don't find clear instructions about what I'm to do in this situation. Suggestions would be appreciated.
