In my Motorola One phone, Open Camera produces DRO only for JPEG output.

Surprised to read about Open Camera not generating DNGs with DRO.

I was wrong. Open Camera can generate DNG with DRO (dynamic range optimization) set. It must be enabled in a properties menu, which I did not notice before.

However, as developed in Snapseed, the DNG is inferior to Open Camera produced JPEG, with DRO enabled.

Open Camera can produce WebP instead of JPEG, although WebP omits EXIF.

I'm using HedgeCam2 (a friendly collaborative spin of Open Camera) with no such problem. I prefer its "NR" to DRO setting, as similarly multishot with different settings tweaks, but both create JPG with uncompressed DNGs, from its JPEG and DNG (RAW) setting. (I'm using HedgeCam2 as a mono black and white app, getting manual control over multishot output SOOC, beating what I've gotten from several dedicated b/w apps, and the companion DNG is handy if color or post-processing is wanted later.)

Thanks for the info. Reviews of HedgeCam2 look bad, so I didn't download.
