RAW vs DNG: Ask David Bergman

Today's question from Joseph: “I shoot RAW. When I import into Lightroom, should I keep them in RAW or convert to DNG? I was told DNG is better” and from Cody B: “The images from my Canon M50 are RAW CR2 files, but then I convert them to DNG. Does this compromise my ability to work on them in post-production?”
