ABSTRACT

Processing Raw data White balance, brightness, contrast, saturation and sharpness can all be assigned as part of the conversion process in Adobe Camera Raw rather than in the camera. Performing these imageediting tasks on the full high-bit Raw data enables you to achieve a higher quality end result. After the image has been processed in the Camera Raw dialog box the file is then opened into the image-editing workspace and the Raw file closes and remains in its Raw state, i.e. unaffected by the processing procedure. Although the Camera Raw dialog box appears a little daunting at first sight, it is reasonably intuitive and easy to master.
