CAP is one of Phase One's RAW formats, used by their medium format digital camera backs to capture unprocessed sensor data for high-end commercial, fashion, and fine art photography. When a delivery file needs to retain maximum quality rather than the compressed result a JPG export would produce, PNG is the better target, preserving every bit of detail recovered from Phase One's large sensors.
Converting CAP to PNG demosaics the sensor data and writes a lossless file, making it the practical choice when archival quality matters more than minimizing file size.

Why choose PNG instead of JPG for CAP exports?
