The image you see in a DNG is the information as it comes from the camera sensor.  When your camera converts that information into a JPG,  it applies a number of corrections including lens distortion corrections, color adjustments, and others.
 
With a RAW/DNG image you are not forced to accept the camera's choice of adjustments - you get to make your own.  That's the whole point of using RAW/DNG formats in the first place.

Thanks you for your reply.

This is what I expected, but I didnt expect, that colors will be worst compared to JPG  ::) I thought that it will easier to get accurate colors from DNG.

So... Camera Profile is my way? Im little confused, can you navigate me to an point?

Thanks you

What results you get depend entirely on the software and settings you used to convert the DNG. There's no reason to expect some default settings in some raw software to be better than the Canon jpeg. Canon spends a lot of money on engineering to ensure their jpegs look pretty good.

If you don't like the results you are getting from your raw software, use different settings or different software.
Don't forget what the H stands for.
