DNG Metadata on Mac
DNG is often chosen as a normalized RAW archive format. Metadata integrity is the reason many studios adopt it.
After conversion, verify that copyright, ratings, and camera fields survived. Native Mac inspection catches silent losses before you retire proprietary RAW originals.
Pair DNG checks with export reports when migrating catalogs between Lightroom, Capture One, or custom DAMs. DNG often embeds XMP, but some pipelines still use sidecars—inspect both; see the XMP Sidecar topic.
