I have a bunch of DNG files which were created by the Adobe DNG Converter. When I use ImageMagick to convert these files to a jpeg, they go from 3008x2008 to 256x171.

How can I convince ImageMagick to read the full size image from the DNG file?

I Googled this question and found someone else who asked this question on the forum, but there was never an answer given.

Assume your image is CRW_0049.dng. To convert it to say PNG, use this command:

• convert dng:CRW_0049.dng image.png

Ahh... I almost missed what you added to the command. The conversion is working MUCH better now!

Why do I need to specify that the file is a dng when it has a ".dng" extension?
