Ad esempio: Real World Camera Raw with Adobe Photoshop CS5 (Jeff Schewe, Bruce Fraser)
Dal capitolo 1:
Edits in Photoshop are destructive�when you use a tool such as Levels ... you change the actual pixel values, creating the potential for either or both of two problems:
� Posterization ...
� Detail loss ...
Etc, etc. Lettura molto istruttiva.
Beh... mettiamo qualcosa in pi� di questo capitolo 1
When you shoot raw, though, you have, by definition, captured everything
the camera can deliver, so you have much greater freedom in shaping the
overall tone and contrast for the image. You also produce a file that can
withstand a great deal more editing in Photoshop than an 8-bit-per-channel
JPEG can.
Edits in Photoshop are destructive�when you use a tool such as Levels,
Curves, Hue/Saturation, or Color Balance, you change the actual pixel
values, creating the potential for either or both of two problems:
� Posterization can occur when you stretch a tonal range. Where the
levels were formerly adjacent, they�re now stretched apart, so instead
of a gradation from, for example, level 100 through 101, 102, 103, 104,
to 105, the new values may look more like 98, 101, 103, 105, and 107.
On its own, such an edit is unlikely to produce visible posterization�
it usually takes a gap of four or five levels before you see a visible jump
instead of a smooth gradation�but subsequent edits can widen the
gaps, inducing posterization.
� Detail loss can occur when you compress a tonal range. Where the
levels were formerly different, they�re now compressed into the same
value, so the differences, which represent potential detail, are tossed
irrevocably into the bit bucket, never to return.
Figure 1-6 shows how the compression and expansion of tonal ranges can
affect pixel values. Don�t be overly afraid of losing levels�it�s a normal and
necessary part of image editing, and its effect can be greatly reduced by
bringing correctly exposed images into Photoshop as 16-bit/channel files
rather than 8-bit/channel ones�buones�but simply be aware of the destructive
potential of Photoshop edits.
Partiamo dal presupposto che can occur = pu� verificarsi quindi non
si verificaPrometto di rileggermi bene tutto il capito, ma qui fa riferimento immagini Raw su ACR confrontate con immagini jpg su Photoshop.
X Maxiclimb, grazie della spiegazione. Voglio approfondire la cosa appena rientro. Ma nell'esempio che ti ho postato io ( l'istogramma), la parte bianca contiene informazioni?
