Hello, Bill

 

I open all images from RAW files, after selection from the JPG ones.

With Digilux 3files, I use directly PS CS5, with updated profiles. With Canon 
files, I use DPP, a Canon software, also with updated
profiles.

In this phase, there are already various tools to improve the images, in both 
cases.

In a second stage, PS offers enough tools, filters, etc. to follow improving 
the picture, and progressively recover the "real
picture" you saw when you took it.

After many failed intents -some, frankly disastrous- I'm approaching slowly to 
the results I was looking for; but I just post some
pictures. the rest, better you don't see it J  

Thank you so much.

 

Cheers,

Marc

Good Day Flexers.
 
I have no superb images to offer, Marc Dufour has presented lately something I 
would not compete with.... Bravo Camarade !
 
No, really, my 'niche', a.K.a 'speciality' is rather the 'what do I get 
when.....'
 
Today, something rather interesting and a quizz to win a superb post card of 
Paris.
 
I have been using the Compact Lumix LX5 and wondered if a Raw image is as Raw 
as on the Digilux 3. In fact the LX5 comes in a second
or even third generation after the Digilux3 and often the solution to resolve a 
need is different.
 
All right, not teasing more, let's dive. Here is a picture taken in raw mode, 
developped with Silkypix, normal, the white balance
was rather set to another specific place, my underground, hence the blueish 
cast, mostly due to a end of a sunny day while the main
light was artificial:

Now, same compact LX5, same light but I applied a different 'taste' of film, 
dynamic B&W, here is the Jpeg, resized:

All right, a few Bretzel have gone, the image may look a bit muddy (but not 
that bad, any way, at resolution of 1200 dots, you can
hardly say otherwise....). Now, look at the raw image stored by the camera and 
plainly developped in Silkypix (version 5, all of
them anyway):

To tell you, when the last image is opened by silkypix, it shows out of range 
values for the balance.....
 
Now, quizz: what is the idea behind this set up, why is it much better to 
develop inboard an image like this?
 
Your postcard is on the way.....
 
To finish up, the raw images of taste B&W dynamic taken with the Digilux 3 do 
not look like this. Here on the compact, it's a trick
to optimize another process..... Why not!
 
A very interesting system apprach, in my eye. I'll tell you what is behind...
Cheers!
