ABSTRACT
In the last decade, the number of photographers who shoot digitally has grown to the point where the photographers who shoot film are in the minority. Vast majority of photographers work with pictures that have been shot using a digital SLR that is capable of capturing files in a raw format and which can be read by Adobe Camera Raw in Photoshop. The Camera Raw Histogram provides a preview of how the Camera Raw output image histogram will look after the image data has been processed and output as a pixel image. The histogram is particularly useful in demonstrating why it is better to output Camera Raw processed images using either the ProPhoto or Adobe RGB color spaces. Camera Raw has the useful ability to apply auto tone corrections. An auto tone adjustment affects the exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites and blacks, and is to some extent affected by the white balance setting while processing the image.
