Another Reason To Shoot Raw!

MANY reasons to shoot Camera RAW images, if your tool of choice offers it, and of course, helps if you have Photoshop or something like it! Just shot this in my backyard garden, was out testing ISO speeds and came across this lovely Zebra Longwing Butterfly, here in Central Florida. Wasn't THAT interested in ME taking HER image and I needed to chase her around a bit, but using ISO of 12,800 and a shutter speed of 1/4000th second, got her as she briefly set down.

ONLY used Photoshop Adobe Camera RAW(ACR) and came out with a nice HUGE file!

HERE WE GO!!!

The finished product, original capture, 1/4000th, F5.6, ISO 12,800!!! Now looks great, thanks to shooting RAW and running it through Adobe Camera RAW, ACR, and removing most if not all noise! 12,800 ISO!!!???

Some may notice it's a bit larger now too....first image is "before", no noise removed...

                                         

Second image is "After", removing "noise" in Adobe Camera Raw(ACR). Camera is a new/old Canon 5D MK IV
