Padge Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I thought I was using raw. It says that on my camera. I don't like mucking about too much. It smacks of trying to make a bad picture good. I know what I want when I take the picture. I've never enjoyed my photography as much since I got into digital. Yes, your camera will be shooting in RAW, however to get the image on here it needs to be converted to JPG. JPG is what is known as a 'lossy' format. When something is saved in JPG the image is compressed to reduce the file size. You will have started with something like a 16Mb RAW file and that had an image size something like 5,000 pixels x 3,000 pixels. That has been reduced to a 680 x 1200 file of 130k. The result is that detail is lost in the process, the missing bytes mean the image becomes 'softer'. The usual thing to do following the conversion process is to sharpen the image to restore detail. If you continually save a jpg image it will become visibly degraded as every time you save it the process is repeated. Therefore its best to work in a none 'lossy' format such as TIF until editing is completed. Then when ready re-size your image to the optimum for what you are doing with it. Convert to JPG, sharpen and then save.

I, just like those Castleford supporters felt that the ball should have gone to David Plange but he put the bit betwen his teeth...and it was a try Kevin Ward - best player I have ever seen The real Mick Gledhill is what you see on here, a Bradford fan ........, but deep down knows that Bradford are just not good enough to challenge the likes of Leeds & St Helens.
