Posts: 49 | Editing-JPEG?
I keep hearing that it is better to not edit your photo's in JPEG. Could someone Explain Why?
My Camera downloads the files as Jpeg & RAW. I have been using both images sometimes if I edit. Because I am not very familiar with RAW. I only save the important ones. The ones I think would look good blown up large. So am I doing this wrong should I keep one or the other and should I change the format TIFF., Etc.
Thanks In Advance

Every time you make an edit to a jpeg file, save it, open it up again, and do more editing, the file deteriorates. Yhis is what I do.
Off the Camera Jpg
Make edit say as Tiff
Work with that file or convert to PS or PP if I use them.
Resize and/or optimize.
Save as jpg and upload
Later........... |

Let's take PS. They recommend several things, one of which is to load the file download aand when any change whatsoever is made to save as a psd or tif file. Depending on what the final use of the file will be there are other conversions to fit that application. Further. I shoot in raw mode a lot. The raw file that comes off my camera is not a jpg it is an AWR file. When the Raw processing is done, I save it as a tiff and then work on it as a PSD or PPF file, before doing the conversion to however I plan to use it!, i.e. JPG for upload to APOW. I would appreciate any information you have on your work in jpg theory, because I have never heard of this before. Thanks. |
