Look, in my previous post i showed you how to extract with exiftool
jpg's from raw-files.
There is also a command for exiftool how to extract the thumbnails from
the raw-files, but i don't know it...
My workflow is like this:
- importing all raw's from my camera
- extracting jpg's from raw-files
- looking through: deleting jpg's and raw's i don't like
- rename
- converting with rawstudio
You have a box 'curve' (in the 'toolbox') where you can set a
base-curve. I did a hard work on developing some curves i liked, by
converting raw to jpg with different basecurves and comparing them to
the camera-jpg's. Just try it on our own. Everybody has a different
flavour...
Mark, you too should get a base-curve you like. After i opened a
base-curve ('toolbox') in the first image, i'm copying this settings,
selecting every image in the 'iconbox' and pasting it.
So, every image has then my own base-curve. And i go through every image
(ctrl+right) and i'm setting the exposure or contrast.
Hope this helped a little ;)
Bye
