makoto Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 I want to shoot a documentary film using sigma fp. I want to use this format because sigma fp is lightweight and easy to carry, and cinema dng is high quality. However, cinema dng has a problem that the file size is very large and the storage capacity is under pressure. I found that searching on the internet and converting to cineform Raw format can greatly reduce the file size. However, both Raw 4 Pro and Go Pro Cineform Studio Premium are no longer available, and I'm not sure if there is still a way to convert Cinema Dng to Cineform Raw. Does anyone know anyone? I use a Mac, but I can use windows with VM Ware. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawshooter Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Use Slimraw instead to recompress the CinemaDNG to smaller file sizes. Cineform Raw is a sparsely supported and pretty much a dead format. makoto, markr041 and techie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
