RAW is the sensor's raw output before any camera processing. It contains more color and tonal information than JPEG, giving you flexibility in post-processing. RAW files require software to view and process, but they preserve detail that a JPEG would discard.

A preset records a complete set of adjustment values as a named item that can be applied to other images instantly. Applying the same preset to a series of images establishes a visual consistency across them, and each image can still be refined individually within the framework the preset establishes.

The Light panel contains the six sliders that control the tonal distribution of an image: overall brightness, tonal contrast, recovery of blown highlights, lifting of blocked shadows, and clipping of the extreme white and black points. These adjustments govern the fundamental luminance relationships in the photograph.

Filters attach to the lens and change how light enters the camera. Polarizing filters reduce reflection and boost color saturation; ND filters reduce light to allow slower shutter speeds; colored filters change color tone. Filters are easier than post-processing if you know what you want.

Light is the foundation of every image. Hard light creates sharp shadows and contrast; soft light wraps around and minimizes wrinkles. Knowing how to read light and position yourself or modify it is more important than any technical setting.

Color in photography is powerful because it carries mood and emotion. Warm colors advance and energize; cool colors recede and calm. Controlling and balancing color in your image is a key tool for directing how the viewer feels.
