Don’t Change Your Camera’s Color Space For RAW

 

If you’re shooting only in RAW (and not RAW+JPEG), then you don’t have to worry about changing the color space in your digital camera to match the edit space in Photoshop. That’s because you’ll actually choose the color profile that will be assigned to the photo right before you process the RAW file—it comes in “untagged.” It’s RAW after all, right? So choose your color profile from the Space pop-up menu in the bottom-left corner of the Camera Raw dialog before you open the image in Photoshop. (Note: If you don’t see the Space menu, turn on the Show Workflow Options checkbox.)

Viewing and Basking in your Image

When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.
