Hi everyone,
I’ve had an ongoing problem with all my Adobe programs for a few weeks and haven’t been able to get any help for it. They stopped properly converting my RAW files from my Rebel XT. Because of this, I have started opening the RAWs in Canon RAW Image Task and then transferring them to CS2 using the "transfer" button in Image Task. It works perfectly, however; Today I used the "shadow/highlight" tool on one of these 16 bit TIFF files transferred over, and as soon as I move either slider from the "0" value to "1", not only do I start seeing shadow or highlight recovery but it suddenly bursts the other (shadow if I’m adjusting highlight and highlight if I’m adjusting shadow) option. Like if I move highlight recovery from 0 to 1, the shadows reveal a great deal more detail at the same time or they darken. Highlight should only affect the highlights and I know this, but now it is changing highlights and shadows at the same time. I then opened an old jpeg and used the shadow/highlight tool it worked as it is supposed to. Is there some incompatability here or just something I’m not realizing? Thanks.
For the record: some RAWs from the same shoot seem to work perfectly! It can’t just be the way the certain images look though because it’s odd behaviour. When going from 0 to just 1, the whole image changes dramtically… as if I went from 0 to 50 on both tabs at once.
