HTC One M9 RAW Support DNG+JPG

HTC One M9 RAW Support DNG+JPG HTC have pushed an update to the M9 camera that enables RAW DNG+JPG support within the apps camera.

This change is likely to offer a big boost in image quality as DNG images are not compressed and hold all the information about the scene when the image was taken allowing higher quality post processing work in Photoshop and other apps.

RAW support is the future of Android photography and its very very nice to see HTC leading the pack.

How Raw Support on the One M9 Works

Whenever you take an image using RAW DNG+JPG on your HTC ONE M9 you store two files on your device. One is a JPG as normal and the other is a DNG files that can be anything up to 40 mb each. The stored image is uncompressed and also holds information about the scene when the image was taken, such as the white balance and exposure.

Using an application like Photoshop you can then have much finer control to adjust the image after the picture is taken just like a real photographer would using a DSLR.

It’s great HTC has included RAW DNG+JPG support in the ONE M9 it’s sure to improve the functionality of the camera for those that want finer control and uncompressed images.
