Unfortuantely it is still blurry after selecting the “include big thumbnail” option in Adobe DNG Converter.Adobe DNG Converter for Mac is a free utility that converts files from more than 600 cameras to DNG, enables you to easily convert camera-specific raw files to a more universal DNG raw file.ĭigital Negative was developed to address the lack of an open standard for the proprietary and unique raw files created by each digital camera.

Thank you very very much for the fast reply and your explanation. Thats why I am kind of curious why it shows small blurry thumbnails… I used Adobe Lightroom to convert the files and I also selected High Thumbnails. Wow this was fast, thank you very much :) ARW files and they have a rather huge embedded thumbnail, even good enough for actual real 10×13 prints, … DNG files only have a very small preview from the program which converted those (which program btw?) - I keep the original Sony. If available my plugin loads the embedded thumbnail preview for speed and color accuracy. Thank you very very much for your great help :) Is this intended? Or is this a bug on my machine? With your plugin I happily can see previews BUT they are extremely small and blurry.

In the File settings section choose “Camera RAW 7.1 or later”, “Embed fast load data” and - important - “Use Lossy Compression”. Lossy Compressed DNG are creating in the export dialog. You can easily make as many example file as you like with Lightroom.

If you could send an example I could take a look, … They are pretty handy but it seems, there is now QuickLook Support out there. Unfortunately it does not handle the DNG 1.4 files, especially those lossy compressed DNG files. Please let me know if everything works ok or if there is more to improve -) Thanks for your interesting and feedback! Here is an update that should support thumbnail and preview of Fuji FAF and Adobe DNG files.
