I guess this will be a thing which is likely to concern many of us here as photoshop moves to a subscription based service.

This means that ACR updates for new cameras will not trickle down to older users of CS4/5/6

I have recently purchased a panasonic G6 and found that there is no way to use the RAWs with ACR unless I convert to DNG first.

Does anyone know if information is lost during the DNG conversion process?? or does it simply change file headers??

Are there different versions of DNG files? Or will they work with all versions of ACR?
 
As mentioned in the OP, this is not about saving HDD space or anything.

Its bascialyl about being able to edit raws with ACR.

Since many people will not fork out for CC , it is likely to affect many soon.

I do wonder if Adobe will allow DNG files from latest cameras to be used with ACR. It is something that will affect sales as many will cling on older versions and use DNG.

Ofc you miss out on the latest features of CC but not really relevant for many.
