Nordgrey Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I swear if a crow had my brains it would fly backwards! I went out yesterday to a show and shine and took a couple hundred pics. Sounds good so far. Well before I went out I was experimenting with the camera and changed the white balance around to see the differences. Well, I left it on "bright florecent" light. The show and shine was outdoors in bright sunshine.......... Not even photoshop with the RAW format pics could save the pictures. lesson learned........ I HOPE!!

WildBillsBlueC6 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 If you open in in camera RAW you should be able to set the color balance for the RAW file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordgrey Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 If you open in in camera RAW you should be able to set the color balance for the RAW file. Remember what I said about the crow flying backwards with my brains? You can repeat that now. Completely forgot about in camera RAW processing. I might be able to save most of them. Thanks Bill!!

LDM Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I guess this is a perfect example of why not to shoot in JPEG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordgrey Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 I actually shoot in both. Have 32 gig worth of high speed cards so that is good for almost 900 shots. But RAW definetly saved me from wasting the trip to the show for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I usually shoot in fine to give me more pics and for most of the pictures it's fine (forgive the pun), but when I'm really wanting a great shot, I'll use RAW. I read a book that suggested using cloudy when outside and I LOVE it. Try it sometime. I like that it pulls some of the blues out of it and makes it warmer. I only change it when indoors in lower light levels. Awesome Dodge! That's when Dodge made TRUCKS! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildBillsBlueC6 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I always shoot RAW plus small jpeg. That way I have something that I can through on the web quickly as well as the RAW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
