Thanks!
So I guess it comes down to either
1) a simpler workflow and hardware requirements (i.e. computing power, storage space) with cineform but with slightly less quality, but this can be improved in post (I presume the IQ after post here will still slightly be worse than the IQ after post in option 2 below), or
2) a more compllicated workflow and HW requirements (DNG)but with better IQ
That is universe divine! proves the saying you never get a free lunch, always pros and cons to each.
Also you mentioned that the raw2gpcf113 is an old version, do you knw which is the newest version or have the link to it? thanks!
