I'm really worried about transfer directly from card to external drive. That seems risky to me.

Don't use the action if you don't need a watermark!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just use Image Processor. And yes, 3600x3600.

Please make sure you transfer them to your internal hard drive, not an external.

It won't open for me either. It's corrupted somehow. Do you still have them on the card? The file is only 14MB. That seems very small for a D700 raw file? What size are the ones that are working?

By the way, make sure you read this if you haven't already, and share it with any Mac users you know.

73 is a bit on the low side, but should be ok. Could you send me one of the raw files? https://spaces.hightail.com/uplink/BellePhotography

To begin, try this: https://www.damiensymonds.net/2012/09/resetting-tools.html

Has anything changed in your workflow or setup? New card? New Photoshop update? New card reader? Anything you can think of? Does it still recognise the files from your last shoot?

That's something you'll have to decide for yourself. Everyone has their own approach to this.

Yep.

The Brightness/Contrast is the same as a midtone contrast layer that you add at the end of your Levels editing, most likely.

Yeah, that looks good!

Please stop asking the same question over and over. The answer is still the same. PLEASE show me an alternative belly button so I can help you swap it.

It will be a lot easier to replace the button. Surely you can find one?

No.

Interesting, thanks for letting me know.

Done.

I don't know, I'm so sorry. I'll move this into Brian's area.

Hi @Khcphotog, Brian will be along shortly to answer your question more thoroughly, but I can tell you that I have seen him say that 32 is a good idea, to future-proof your computer purchase. Not overkill at all. In fact, I believe he himself is running 64GB of RAM!

Time of day must have a lot to do with it. Her editing seems to enhance the existing shadows in her photos, whereas your photo doesn't really have any shadows to work with, you know?
