If your
not shooting a million shots in one session you might consider
shooting RAW if your not doing so already. RAW offers you the
equivalent of film based cameras negative. RAW has so many
advantages over shooting just JPG, and just one disadvantage. I might
modify that statement and replace disadvantage with the word
inconvenience.
So in this article for those who are not familiar with shooting RAW, Im going to show you how to get the correct exposure for your shot when converting the RAW file to JPG using the Adobes RAW dialogue box in PS CS2.
There are many RAW converters on the market, some better than others. I prefer to use Adobes, and thats what Im using in this article. If you have Adobe, you can follow along with me here.
Well
be dealing with only two sliders today.
Exposure
Shadows
First well deal with getting the correct exposure.
Hold down the ALT key, and move the the slider to the right until noise just starts to appear in the dialogue window.
Now move the slider back to the left until the noise just disappers. STOP.
Now the Shadows
Hold the ALT and slide the slider left. When all the noise disappears, STOP.
Your DONE!
