Number Four above is what interests me! Let's hear more about "what goes on here is the subject of a book". I realize one can learn a lot from the workshop, but unfortunately there is rarely enough "doing" in a workshop for us older guys to retain all that might be covered. I hope there IS a book in the works Jack. I will be glad to purchase the book prior to its being printed! Charles1) Import with key words into session >
2) Apply my basic "Style" to all images >
3) Sort/rank (this is an optional step for me depending on the shoot) >
4) Adjust keepers. (NOTE: What actually goes on here is the subject of a book, and cannot be condensed to a short list in any meaningful way; this is where the art and magic happens and we spend hours at a time teaching separate parts of this on our workshops.) >

On the process out, I sometimes will use C1 to generate a web-sized jpeg, and it does a decent job. However, more often I'll take my full tiff into CS, apply any local adjustments if needed then use my web converter actions to generate the web jpeg. In this fashion, my web jpeg more closely represents what my "print" tiff looks like. I can then add my custom border as well. Because of local adjustments, final output sharpening and print curves, I print out of CS and not C1. I am not a high-volume printer and have excellent profiles for the papers I use, so find CS printing entirely satisfactory for my needs and have no burning need for a dedicated RIP.
Color gamut. Your camera's capture space is larger than sRGB, and your printer's output space is larger than sRGB. Now you could save an Adobe jpeg, but to what point? Why compress when space is cheap. I process out everything destined for print to a 16 bit tiff, usually profoto, but sometimes using the camera profile embedded when extreme color accuracy is required.comments?
I'm too freaking lazy to do a book -- I'd need a ghost writer and we know it couldn't be Guy :ROTFL:. But maybe Guy and I should do our own series of C1 processing "Secret Sauces" videos...Number Four above is what interests me! Let's hear more about "what goes on here is the subject of a book".

I think you would make more money on that DVD than on a workshop....but then I am sure the workshop would be much more fun.
