![]() ![]() ![]() I bracket my shots and, at minimum, delete two of every three images shotĪlmost all of my images go from raw to final JPEG in PL. I'd love to do everything in PL5 but it lacks some important functions for me, such as side-by-side comparisons. Why wouldn't you do everything in PL5? What's the purpose of producing DNGs? I hope I'm on the right track so I can fully commit to Photolab. This would allow me to archive my original RAF files. Open newly created Linear DNG, make further changes. Make other necessary changes (what are they?). I suspect that the answer I seek incorporates: Open RAF in Photolab. I haven't explored what this means, so I wonder what it means! I have exported a few Linear DNG files and I see that I get an icon on the thumbnail display, indicating "Some corrections are not available with Linear DNG files". Bear in mind that a typical bird-in-flight photo could be 80% or more sky to be cropped away. I want to determine what I should do in this initial processing stage before exporting. I have a vague idea that I'll get improved results if I copy RAF files directly to my hard drive, cull them, use Photolab for a bit of processing including crop, then export to Linear DNG. (Note these steps were all previously performed within the subscription software I am leaving!) Then I compare and cull images in Faststone Image Viewer. I am trying to determine whether DxO's linear DNG files should be incorporated into my workflow.Ĭurrently I convert Fujifilm RAF files into DNG format with Adobe's DNG converter while copying to my hard drive. That means that I generally crop heavily to frame my subjects to my liking. I am a hobbyist wildlife photographer, primarily bird photography. My only remaining task is to develop a RAW workflow with DxO Photolab 5 for processing my Fujifilm raw files. I can practically smell the air at the finish line. ![]() I am on the verge of finally leaving behind subscription software. ![]()
