Look at these two points together. I'm mainly a JPG shooter, but when the lighting gets funny I switch to RAW. The raw processing of tricky white balance is so good that it's worth the trouble.
I use the RAW > 4. Why, when I tried to auto-white balance an ISO-1600 picture of a > toddler in a bathtub using Lightroom's WB wand to click on the white > porcelain, did the baby's flesh go all mottled when you look close up? > All those auto-whatever-features are extremely bad idea in complex lighting conditions. Try RAW and manual conversion settings. > 5. Why, when I tried to do the same to an ISO-1600 shot of boys > playing soccer in a yellow gym, did it snap into violent purple? > and > 9. Why do you want a RAW button, wouldn't most people shoot in RAW > all the time or JPEG all the time? > Again - depends. Myself, I do not use it at all (I shoot only RAW), but I know several people who are enjoying it much. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
