Both formats, briefly
DNGIN
DNG is Adobe's open raw format, published as a specification anyone can implement. Every camera maker ships its own raw variant, and support for the older ones fades over time, which is the problem DNG exists to solve. Some cameras and most drones record it directly, and proprietary raw files can be converted into it. Photographers use DNG mainly for archiving and for keeping one format across a mix of camera bodies.
PPMOUT
PPM is deliberately plain: a short text header followed by raw RGB values, with no compression and no structure to parse. That is what you want when you are writing image code yourself or piping frames between command line tools, because reading and writing it takes a few lines. It belongs to the Netpbm family, next to PGM for grayscale and PBM for pure black and white. The files are enormous, so convert before sending one anywhere.
