Hi out there,
I have a Nikon D200 camera,Photoshop CS2 and WIndows.
Now in my camera settings i take photos as Raw + Jpeg fine, my camera doesn’t have TIFF. My photos are for printing -medium to large- and web.
I am kind of new to the digital thing…
I have been reading, asking, and wondering about digital workflow, i know it’s a personal business but i am a little lost in there….but i don’t want to spend most of my time doing this, now that i spend half on the computer!
Now this is what i do,
does it make sense?any suggestions?any additions as to bits, resolution, etc?
1.CONVERT RAW INTO DNG (directly from camera if possible) USING DNG CONVERTER.(DELETE RAW) STORE
2. MAKE CHANGES FROM THE DNG FILE IN ACR, SAVE AS DNG, NEW FILE.
3.IF MAKE FURTHER CHANGES WITH PHOTOSHOP, SAVE CHANGES AS a.PSD (STORE AND USE FOR WEB) AND b.AS JPEG (STORE AND USE FOR PRINT)
4.MAKE CONTACT SHEETS, GALLERY, ETC
I don’t have Lightroom, is it worth getting into more programs? Am questioning why i set Jpeg copy in my camera…
Thanks.
