3.2.2 Save (continued)
3.1.8 File type (continued)
Saving the image as a DNG file has the advantage of significantly smaller
file sizes (33% of TIFF). Also, making the demosaicing (colour conversion
into RGB) and optimisations as a second step is beneficial as the original
image data is left unchanged and can always be accessed later.
Camera raw (latest version) and Lightroom 2.0 can convert the Roundshot
D3 panorama if the image has less than 65‘000 horizontal pixels.
When using a 64-bit operating system, the Seitz Roundshot D3 software
and the Seitz raw converter can open dng files of up to 4 GB in raw (dng)
and create tiff files of up to 12 GB. For tiff images larger than 4 GB a
special software reading BigTiff images (plug-in) is necessary. For more
information on the ideal workflow please visit chapter 5.
