- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
I've read that for digital cameras you should expose for the highlights b/c shadows are easier to get detail from in an editor (photoshop), whereas if highlights are blown out, the detail is lost;
however,
I have also read that, even for digital, to expose for 18% grey (like film). So which is it to get the best exposure?
If it IS grey, you should always have a grey card with you yes? And if you do, in the sun won't the grey card look lighter? What light situation is the grey card "correct"?
Thanks
ps. I have a canon powershot a590
