DCR is another of Kodak's RAW formats, used across several of their digital camera lines to store unprocessed sensor data with maximum editing flexibility for exposure, white balance, and color correction. When archiving or further editing matters more than minimizing file size, PNG is the better target than JPG, since it's lossless and won't introduce any additional compression artifacts once the file has been demosaiced.
Converting DCR to PNG is the practical choice for preserving maximum image quality when revisiting photos captured on Kodak digital cameras, particularly if those files are being brought into a modern editing workflow where every bit of original detail matters.
