DNG Cleaner removes unwanted profiles, previews and settings from DNG images, and losslessly compresses the images to save space. When used with products such as Adobe Lightroom or PhotoShop, DNG images can accumulate settings, previews, etc that just take up space and waste your time. DNG cleaner fixes that in a single step. DNG Cleaner also allows you to change the camera make and model, and remove cropping.
