My 550D uses the CR2 format for RAW files, .. is there any benefit to converting to DNG on import?
One thing I've found is that the meta data regarding historical changes to an image in Lightroom are stored INSIDE the DNG..
With a CR2,you also have to have to corresponding XMP files.
From an administrative point of view, not having to copy two files is a slight advantage. But suppose you want to extract the original (unedited) image from the DNG, is it easy and are free tools available?
