Since I got my Canon 1Ds over a month ago I have mostly used C1 Pro to
process the RAW files. I noticed that files that were 'dead on' exposure
wise, (highlights pushed far to the right without clipping, judging from the
histogram on the camera) generally need a -0,3 tweak in C1 Pro. The same
file opened in CS RAW however sometimes needed +0,5! I find this a bit odd,
although I can understand that the two programs probably use different
approach in their processing. Are other users getting the same thing?
Dear Chris
Yes. I find the settings vastly different. I didn't know they were supposed to be comparable. In my experience I am getting the same results as the test Fernand mentioned recently at
http://www.lashier.com/home.cfm?dir_cat=20503&gal_col=2
One surprise was that I get much less purple fringing with C1 to the extent I don't really need to correct it.
I guess I am saying that I want both RAW converters at the same time. Give
me the fine adjustments of hue/colour, sharpness and lens corrections of the
CS RAW and then the GUI and batch power of C1 Pro and it would be the
perfect RAW converter. What do you think?
There is a request on the CI forum at the moment for suggested new features for the next upgrade. Why don't you post there? You never know, Santa Claus might exist! You will see my wish list there.
