- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
First - please forgive me diving in as a new menber with a question right away!
I'm aware that the color space arena is huge and I'm gaining understanding as I read but there is one thing that I cannot seem to find an easy procedure for:-
I generally take sRGB but I disovered that my camera was set to Adobe RGB for a set of pictures.
Putting aside (for now) what I should be using going forward (eg RAW), I simply want to convert the Adobe RGB photos to sRGB and resave.
I appreciate there will be two parts to this
1/ the conversion
2/ the resaving once converted
I do NOT have Photoshop! But this surely can be achieved using eg Irfanview or View NX (I have a Nikon D5000) or other software like GIMP? I just can't work out how.
Once converted, if I resave as a jpg the picture would undergo another loss process. So I can resave as TIF (or ZIPTIF to use lossless compression)?
Or, I see in Irfanview, there is an option to save jpg at 100% quality - I assume this would men lossless compression?
Many thanks!
