How many times can you *NOT* answer a question? The question is whether
a 40D RAW file when converted to DNG is still 14 bits, or 12 bits. I'd
think it's still 14 bits. I see no reason why that would change.



Great reply from Mr. knowitall and a good reason not to read more than 3
or 4 of the replies in news groups.

If you leave out your own replies, that would indeed be the number of
messages to get the corerect answer. Do read the original question. Here
it is:

"My question was will that workflow support the 14 bit color of the 40D
in the raw conversion. Or will DNG convert the 14 bit color to 12 bit?"
