Expert photographer Rob Sheppard explains the details of Camera Raw, the steps for using it, the workflow process, and certain best practices that demonstrates how Camera Raw can empower the digital photographer. Encouraging you to use it as you see fit, he explores the enhancements in the newest generation and helps you deal with RAW's limitations, manage white balance and exposure, reduce noise (especially in night shots,) and learn to use camera settings that make the most of RAW capabilities.
Very thorough. I'm a huge Camera Raw nerd, since I use it for the primary function of my full-time job every day; I only found a few nitpicks in Sheppard's material, and came away with some interesting new techniques. A good, complete treatment of shooting raw.
