I've had a quick look at the differences between the EXIF data in the NEF
and DNG formats:

Adobe have made it nice and easy to retrieve the EXIF data storing it as
XML. This also means that you can retrieve it from the CLI without any
dedicated software.

The only stuff that didn't seem to make it through the conversion was
information about the camera settings for Hue adjustment, Sharpening & Noise
Reduction. All the other relevant shooting data seems OK.
