You can definitely pull down a highlight in the PS CS RAW converter. It offers far more flexibility that Photo Lab.

Dod you adjust exposure in the Photoshop-CS RAW converter,

Hi Jan,

I'm still running PS7 (the recent CS discussions aren't too encouraging) in
combination with the latest incarnation of Photo Lab. I optimised the histogram
inside P-lab so I didn't need to apply any level correction in PS. I set
contrast to minimum and adjusted the sensitivity in P-lab to ensure that the
data wasn't truncated at either end of the histogram.


Do you thing that the PS CS convertor would do a better conversion?

Hard to say, perhaps under-expose a bit and use a (shielded) flash
to get a highlight in the eyes maybe ...

But using a small flash would probably not get the nice eye details
that you can see now ...

I figured as much, I hope the next Pentax DSLR incarnation has wider effective
latitude.


Thanks for taking the time to comment.

Cheers,
