I also make one backup to DNG of my Canon RAW files. The Canon files 
don't get compressed much compared with Nikon or Olympus RAW files, 
but I figure having one more losslessly compressed copy in another 
format that might be more easily readable 20 years from now can't 
hurt. I know most of my commercial photos will be uninteresting years 
from now, but I want the family photos to survive, so that my kids 
and grandkids can make the choice to dump them or not.
