How does shooting RAW affect my white balance, levels, ASA and exposure?
Last Updated at Apr 29 by admin
Shooting RAW differs from traditional video recording in that recording a video signal requires adjusting color temperature, exposure, gain, sharpening, knee, toe, pedestal and black levels prior to processing the signal. In a RAW capture, all this information can be addressed after the recording is made. The sensor simply captures what it sees and all processing takes place in post, offering the ability to make all adjustments for the perfect picture in the editing process. Exposure, in the form of shutter and iris, is the only finite adjustment that need be made, at time of capture, to obtain the correct image.
