When we do a raw conversion, we can actually play with all tool available in the conversion module to get the image we are after or at least close to it,
that's what I do. This will usually give me the image look that I am after and leaves me with little or no post processing to do, for color and exposure, afterwards.We can manipulate and correct White Balance and colors, soften the lighting and even create some ambient lighting if desired. I Most often have the sharpening off in the camera and do no sharpening at the time of conversion either. The following image belongs to one of our friends Sara who is eagerly trying to improve upon her work. The first image in the composite below is her final edit and is what she has posted online and presented for feedback. I thought she could have done a better job of converting this file I asked her to send me the raw file so that I may have a go at it. She was kind enough to send it to me. The second shot in the composite is a screen shot of the raw file as was captured by the camera. The rest of the images in the composite are screen shots of different tabs in CS3 conversion interface with the changes I have made. I did this in one go without giving my eyes a break. I usually work on an image and go on to the next one, or give my eyes a break and revisit the image. This way my eyes can make a better judgment on the colors and exposure. The first part of this conversion series can be found HERE I hope you find this helpful, Cyrus
