Professional digital cameras capture photographs with more color information then a computer monitor can display, and this information is lost when an image is converted into the JPEG format.

A digital negative (also called a raw image) is a file format that contains all of the information that the camera was able to capture.  I use Adobe's DNG file format to provide you with digital negatives in an open format.
