So using raw files has no benefit and might even be slightly worst if the jpg previews of said camera that are built into the raw suck, like out of the mavic?
Whats the point of supporting raw files? Only to give a Camera jpg preview, and not gain any benefit of all that extra data and drive space?
The only way I see this working then is to make adjustments and then rebuild all DNG’s with full sized previews built-in and that at least saves a little drive space. At least I don’t have 2 copies ( 1 DNG and 1 JPG ) of the same pic. There is no time savings here then.
Jonathan Tanant I also use a color checker. The short answer to complex lighting is to use a dual lum. profile. And if you don’t have time to do that, then a generic dual lum profile of daylight and tungsten is recommended as they as far apart in white balance.
