Photography Guide - I was recently updating my computer system and, like cleaning out a shed and seeing an old box in a sun-ray illuminated dusty corner, found some wonderful gems hidden amongst turn of the century digital clutter.
One such gem was a file, aptly named photog-elements.doc, contained the incomplete editing of copious amounts of information gleaned from hours of reading, googling, and trial & error shooting. Just like the Mark 6 Jaguar my father started to renovate back in the 1970's, every thing was there but it just need some dusting off and a bit of honing and it might still be usable.

What is RAW:
A RAW file is a Greyscale file and does not contain anything we humans can see as color as opposed to a TIFF or JEPEG which are ‘processed and contain the colour information required to view it.
The RAW file will also contain the interpretive 'information' (White Balance, Colorimetric interpretation, Gamma Correction, etc) and it is that which will be utilised by the camera or computer software converter to translate this data based on the characteristics of the color filter array (The sensor)
