Raw DNG export for editing outside of Macro Studio

Version 2026.08.17


Raw DNG export

Are you a non-Lightroom user who does most of your editing outside of Macro Studio? Today’s your lucky day! You can now stack in your camera's own color space and save a genuine raw DNG — one that opens correctly in Capture One, DxO PhotoLab, ON1, and other editors (including Lightroom). Your image loads "As Shot" at the real temperature. Switch it on in Preferences —> Advanced. It needs Adobe's free DNG Converter installed. Your Macro Studio edits will NOT carry into the Raw DNG (but will carry into the regular DNG, TIFF, and JPEG as usual).

UI improvements
Brush size and a zoom control now show in Retouch and the other editors.
