[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 333319, member: 12496"] The Raw image does not have any of the camera settings in it, such as White Balance, Contrast, color profile Vivid, etc. The idea of Raw is that we can do that later, after we can see what it needs. The Exposure (shutter speed and f/stop and ISO) is the same either way, but White Balance and such can affect "brightness" somewhat. The camera Rear LCD does not (cannot) show the Raw image. What it shows is an embedded JPG image which DOES have the camera settings in it. The histogram also shows that embedded JPG image. But this view is not true of the Raw file until you process it, and add the settings you desire. So possibly, you have been missing the point of shooting Raw. Raw is unprocessed, your future processing is expected. [URL="http://www.scantips.com/lights/flashbasics1g.html"]Why shoot Raw?[/URL] [/QUOTE]
