Shooting with RAW provides the best opportunity to get the most from your digital camera. Adobe’s Camera Raw is a very comprehensive image adjustment and editing program that while impressive can seem intimidating with its numerous options and tools. Aimed at those who have not worked with it before, but have some experience with image editing, this imaging lab session provides a guided tour of the workspace and how each tool can be used to enhance and interpret all camera image formats, from JPEGs to TIFFs to every RAW camera format.  Attendees will be supplied with work images and a takeaway cheat sheet for a hands-on experience as we make the journey.

Experience level: Beginner to Intermediate, although some experience with image adjustments (in camera or any basic image editing program) will be helpful.
