From what I've seen this is the best photo site, going to try get to Cardiff this week to a camera shop to hold a 3300, I think that looks like the best value for money and will Def do everything that I require atm haha! Silly question, but I've never shot raw before, so I've never post processed photos, I'm guessing that there's a thread on here somewhere?
RAW is easy. Just set the image quality to RAW. If you want redundancy set it to RAW+jpeg. To process
. Download the Nikon RAW software Capture NX-D, and install it.
. Copy your images from the camera to the computer. It is best to keep the images in a separate sub directory, one for each date.
. Start the software and use the file manager to point to the directory the images are in.
. Select combination from View->ViewMode. Now your image is displayed on the top and the thumbnails at the bottom.
Here are screen dump of most of the menus available
Please read the manual (down load it separately, or use the help)
