The Art of RAW Conversion: How to Produce Art-Quality Prints with Adobe Photoshop CS2 & Leading RAW Converters
The RAW file format used by digital cameras is essentially
the raw data that a camera captures when it takes a photo.
RAW files allow the digital photographer to edit and
manipulate their photos with less data loss than in other
file formats (such as JPEG). There are many RAW conversion
tools, and it's often a good idea to
use more than one to
get optimal results.
The Art of RAW Conversion shows digital photographers how to
work with the RAW files generated by a digital camera to
produce the best possible image quality in finished photos.
The authors (both experts in digital photography, file
processing, printing, and color management) describe the
conversion tools used to enhance RAW files and maximize
photo quality. All techniques covered are based on practical
experience and explained with step-by-step instructions, so
that readers will be able to apply what they learn and
create their own fine art-quality photographs. Covers Adobe
Photoshop CS and other leading RAW converters.
