With digital, there's no such thing as "standard" settings. If you jpegs, the camera processes the recorded data. If you shoot RAW, you process it. In either case, you have to control the outcome either by setting the camera derfaults to get the right amount of saturation, contrast and exposure or by making the adjustments in your RAW converter. The latter method, of course, gives you more control. Paul On Jun 28, 2006, at 4:01 AM, mike wilson wrote:
