Do you set the following to default when shooting RAW?
1. Brightness
2. WB
3. Contrast
4. Color
5. Sharpness
Any good tips for a "RAW" newbie? :bsmilie: :bsmilie:
Err.. all of these wont affect the "raw image" ....
dial down the EV a little to avoid blowning out the brightest areas of an image too much ...... any image editing software is going to have problems working with pure white

I did the opposite when shooting RAW. Unless a lot of bright areas, I try dial up +1/3 EV in the spirit of "expose to the right". Well, not really expose to the right but I suppose since the in-camera histogram only shows JPEG results. Hopefully can cram a bit more details as now using RAW. Can always recover later if necessary. :think:
yeah, there's some very risky assumption, namely that the JPEG histogram is an incomplete reflection by the (evaluative) metering of the scene. Hmm.. just experimenting and see what comes out. :dunno:

I keep most to default when I shoot RAW. I just dial up one unit for 'colour' and 'sharpness'.
