Thanks Godfrey. I didn't shoot RAW and I doubt there will be any other detail in the glove part so I guess I'll have to live with the blown highlight.
I'm still saving for PS CS. In the meantime I'll have to learn with PS7. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 5 May 2005 19:29:30 -0700 From: Godfrey DiGiorgi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Subject: Re: PAW: Off with your head Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit On 5/5/05, Francis Alviar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3338004 > > *ist DS > SMC FA 28-105mm f/4-5.6 > 1/750 @ f/8 > Manual Exposure > ISO 800 (800?)

Being a PS7 > newbie I don't exactly know the steps to take. If there's no detail data in those areas, if they're completely saturated, you can only make them darker. If the original file is RAW format, you might be able to retrieve some data if only one channel is not saturated (at least with PSCS and Camera Raw 2.4). > Also > can you guys suggest a good book on PS7. Thank you. I'd look in used book stores for PS7 based books. It's been superceded by PSCS for almost a year now.
