Fotogenetic's website says: "the custom tone curves are applied in the camera on a logarithmic scale while the same curves are applied to the preview image in the Edit Camera Curves dialog box, Nikon Capture (NC), and Photoshop (PS) on a linear scale."
Is that true?!
I originally thought the in-camera custom curve was same as Photoshop's Curve and I can achieve the same effect by plotting the same curve in PS in post-processing.
If this linear vs log scale thing is true, how significant is it in practice? (i.e. Is the quality of the image substantially better or fine-tuning far easier when manipulating the curve in log scale?)
p.s. Too many new knowledge to be mastered when moving from film to DSLR. :cry:
