I suspect that Dave is referencing shooting events. They are quite different from what you are doing. It is more like taking the 300 images and getting rid of the few that didn't work and then processing all the rest rather than 10-20 shots like you are doing. Usually it is the same basic shots with different people in them. I have done that type of shooting many times for kid's sports.
But, I do agree that shooting raw and then a quick basic tweak in the raw converter is the way to go. Lightroom is one of the converters that makes things go much quicker. -- Best regards, Bruce Sunday, September 28, 2008, 2:28:22 PM, you wrote: GD> On Sep 28, 2008, at 2:01 PM, David J Brooks wrote: GD> I don't know what you consider "minimal PP".
