Working with Raw Files in Photoshop?
One of the major benefits of shooting raw is an increased bit depth. Â If you don’t make these two change to your Photoshop Raw workflow, you are just destroying the quality of your raw photos.
Step 1:Â Open a raw image.
Step 2:Â At the bottom of the Adobe Camera Raw window click the white underlined text (the Workflow Options link).
Step 3:Â Set Camera Raw to develop 16-bit files. In the Workflow Options dialog box.
Step 4:Â Choose Open in Photoshop as Smart Objects. Â This way you can double click on the layer to access the raw editing features again.
Now you’re using every bit of tone and color that your raw file offers!
