DP2m: first images, first problems

Re: DP2m: first images, first problems

Two more thoughts:

One is that clouds may need more careful exposure than I thought and maybe in this regard don't respond well to ETTR. Looking at the X3F in SPP again the problem relates to areas of cloud that I had exposed a little too far to the right - the clouds needed -0.3 on the Exposure slider to bring them under the highlight warning (I was at the time more concerned about the shadows).

Now although the problem isn't visible in SPP I just tried the Highlight Control slider moving it fully to the left (Neutralise) and then I exported the TIF into ACR and from there exported a JPG. The colour issues in the JPG are no more and so maybe this is the solution?  When I next get a moment I can try and post the findings.
