Yeah.. I use histogram... but sometimes, still don't know how to use.

eg: Too dark, I put the +ev a bit, but there got some places where is overexposed. eg: Shoot Jungle where some of the top part is sky, there will be Overexposed. Dunno what to do in those circumstance.

If put -ev, then other places too dark and that area still too bright.

How??

-0.7 EV F/7.1 24mm

-2.0 EV F/7.1 24mm

-1.7 EV F/5.6 24mm

BTW, how do you guys resize the pics for I-net ah and still have the EXIF data intact?
For this kind of situation, it is near to impossible to get all the area properly exposed unless u are doing HDR.

either ur sky overexpose/jungle proper exposed or sky proper expose/jungle underexposed. coz u are facing backlight

what wrong anyway if you need to touch up or edit your picture?
you just want to make it look nicer only what..why have to be embarrass cause u touch up your photos using PS or anything?
coz some ppl will feel 'superior' or ego that they didn't touch up their photos and yet can produce decent output and look down on those that spent their time in front of pc more than with their camera.. rolleyes.gif

good point

i've also noticed that ppl that are against post processing are mainly ppl that don't have any knowledge about PS, to me it's so *sour grapes*
*
and even worse, i dunno what is the intention when ppl post up their photos, some of them will mentioned "all the photos are unaltered, no photochopped, just resized". seems like they want to tell everybody "hey, my photos no PP and it still great"

for me if u want to post, just post it, no need to mention whether it been PP or not, unless other forumers request or ask for it, or the photos are use fro benchmarking lens or camera.
