| JPEG from Camera |

| PNG, converted from RAW file |
Ok our first assignment was to take a portrait in natural light. I was lucky that last Sunday I had great lighting in the afternoon and a semi-willing model.
I shot using my Sigma 55-200mm lens on manual (f4.0, 1/1250, AWB, ISO 400).
But anyway the most interesting outcome of this exercise was seeing the difference between shooting in RAW vs JPEG. For the first time ever I shot in both, so I could see what processing the camera was applying to the compressed JPEG image, and I was very surprised by the difference, as you can see in the 2 shots above.
I must admit I quite like what the camera has done in processing the image, but it does mean you lose that control in being able to do it yourself. I will cover more on processing RAW images in my next post.
