Understanding RAW Photography (The Expanded Guide: Techniques) Details

This series of Expanded Guides focuses on photographic techniques not only to give you a comprehensive grounding in the subject but also takes you a step further to enable you to get much more from your photography. Expert advice, with useful hints and tips, is given by professional photographers, using practical examples of techniques for clarity, illustrated in full colour with the aid of clear diagrams and charts. The digital revolution in cameras has led those who may have been successful with film format into a whole new area of learning. The RAW file format is digital photography's equivalent of a negative in film photography: it contains untouched, 'raw' pixel information straight from the digital camera's sensor, which must be processed to produce the final result. Understanding RAW Photography is a comprehensive guide, written by a professional photographer, that explains the procedure from the start of a photo shoot through each stage of post-processing your image to ultimately displaying it in print or on screen. In depth, jargon-busting text offers hints and tips on interpreting RAW images and gives step-by-step information on processes such as demosaicing and white balance, interpreting and converting images, applying tone curves, adjusting colour saturation and contrast, sharpening an image, adjustment in camera and on a personal computer, and final generation of JPEG or TIFF format.This Kindle Edition is a fixed layout which provides the reader with a visually immersive experience of this beautifully designed book.•Pages can be zoomed with a double tap or pinching •2 portrait pages can be viewed together by turning the Kindle Fire device to landscapePlease note that text is not selectable or searchable.
