TPF Noob!
I am trying to figure out how to use RAW well. I am using adobe raw converter/camera raw. Should I:
1)Keep original raw pics (essentially my digital negative, right?) in one folder and use copies for editing in adobe raw? Or just go ahead and edit the original or change to jpeg or tiff? (there are too many ways to edit, I'm confused as to which is best).:x
2)Use adobe raw to edit pics, then use photoshop, or just change straight to jpeg or tiff and use photoshop?
3)Does the adobe raw converter editing do better, worse, or about the same thing to the actual image? (VS. PS) I'm going for top quality prints, BTW
4)Which format is best for printing (somewhere around 8.5x11)?
5)Essentially, what is the best way to keep raw pics organized, edited, changed to great quality, printable format?
Alot of questions, I know, please bear with me and thank you for any and all help you can give.
Thanks
