How to convert DNG to JPG

  1. Drop the DNG files.
  2. Pick a quality.
  3. Press Convert and download the JPGs.

What happens to your file

A DNG holds the sensor’s readings, not a picture. It is developed on Fylane’s servers with LibRaw — demosaiced, white-balanced as the camera set it, rendered to sRGB — then encoded as JPEG at your quality, and deleted on schedule.

The phone’s own look (its tone map, HDR merge, sharpening) and any editor’s sliders are not in the raw data and are not invented here: the JPG is a neutral development at the sensor’s full resolution.

Questions

Why does the JPG look flatter than the photo on my phone?

The phone shows you its processed version. The DNG is the untouched sensor data, so a straight development is more neutral — which is exactly what an editor wants to start from.

Which phones save DNG?

Pixel (RAW+JPEG in the camera settings), iPhone 12 Pro and later (ProRAW), Samsung Expert RAW, and most Android cameras in Pro mode. Cameras and Lightroom export DNG too.

Is quality lost?

JPEG is lossy; at quality 82 you will not see it. The DNG itself is never changed — keep it as the negative.

The same operation, image.convert — Re-encode to WebP, JPEG, PNG or AVIF at your quality. Upload first with the quickstart; every option is on the operations page. 500 free credits a month, then $5 per thousand.
