We will be dealing in depth with AdobeвЂ™s converters, but the same method stands for any other converter. The goal of this article is to demonstrate how you can find the hidden exposure compensation your converter is applying to your raw files when opening them. Even avid Exposing To The Right (ETTR) practitioners can get into this trap, as they consider a histogram derived from the in-camera beautified conversion to be an indication of exposure. In fact, the shot may be underexposed, sometimes by more than 1 stop, and the price is more noise, more artifacts, less resolution, and, ultimately, getting a new camera, which doesnвЂ™t really solve the problem. It often leaves a false impression of properly exposed raw, as we are so accustomed to mixing up exposure and brightness, judging former by the latter. The brightening of the mid-tones that is done behind the scenes is one of the most common approaches to add punch to a raw image. If you are using or planning to use some raw converter, you may want to know what вЂњbeautifiersвЂќ it applies, and their price. This is done to make the shot look good, but can also lead to all sorts of confusion. As we already mentioned in the previous article вЂњ Where are my Mid-tones?вЂњ, most raw converters apply some hidden adjustments to a raw shot, often resulting in a bumped mid-tone, clipped highlights, and compressed shadows.
