Did you read the bit after that quote?
Then it can be saved as a JPEG and still retain the RAW data? That's why i gave the two options. The two options are for the fact that some people can send larger files than others Try It out its a good thing to know. Happy Christmas by the way. Last edited by The Wanderer; 24-12-09 at 20:03. |

This thread has completely lost me - the OP wanted to reduce the size of a RAW file because it was too large to email. He clearly wanted to send someone the RAW file (not a TIFF or jpeg). How the heck converting the RAW to a Tiff which will be a lot bigger file size can help I do not know. Then you suggest converting the TIFF to a jpeg I am sure the OP could have mailed a jpeg in the first place if he had wanted that.
Maybe I am missing something here but I am completely bewildered - time to kick this thread into touch I think. |

Roy,
Read what it says properly. He wanted to send a RAW file so he/she could use the RAW settings in a tutorial. What i have suggested is that if he is struggling to send a full size file then he can convert to JPEG and that can be opened in RAW via BRIDGE with the RAW settings in tact. Sending as a RAW or JPEG (as it was originally shot in RAW and retains the RAW data) is not a problem as it is just needed with the RAW data and can be opened In RAW. This technique is nothing what so ever to do with shooting in JPEG as a true jpeg will not have the RAW data to begin with. I think you should read what i said and corrected properly, then once you understand as you say "your a bit lost", and have tried it then you might see what i am on about. The TIFF as i said was for anyone who can send larger files, the JPEG is for the ones who cannot. But remember the KEY POINT that a converted RAW file to a JPEG has nothing to do with shooting AS A JPEG. HTH you. P.S I'll do a tutorial if you like to help you out if you cannot grasp it, as soon as i get some time. Cheers TW Last edited by The Wanderer; 24-12-09 at 21:18. |

When I made my post I was responding to a post that you made which suggesting that if the RAW file was too big then he could convert to a TIFF which made no sense whatsoever to me as the TIFF file would have been bigger. Please forget the tutorial onj my account as I am not interested. |

Firstly you are interest or you would not bother replying to the post in the first place. Secondly when you made the reply you jumped the gun as i corrected myself and you did not read it as i have already stated. You are correct, you obviously took note about an original JPEG that it does not retain raw data and goes straight to photoshop. What you keep MISSING is that you can save a RAW file as a JPEG and it will retain the RAW data as it was originally shot in RAW. A quick tutorial for you. This is how it works- 1. Open the RAW file in Photoshop. 2. Save as JPEG or TIFF (i won't get into the tiff side as i don't want to loose you)so we will stick with the JPEG 3. Now you send the JPEG (Remember the converted RAW File) to friend. 4. The friend saves to where ever they prefer. 5. The friend opens in Bridge. 6. The friend now opens in RAW by one of the two way command/control "R" (the short cut. Command for Mac control for P.C users) or file, camera raw. 7. The friend now has the JPEG file open in RAW with the RAW data intact. Try It, Its something new for you and If your not Interested then that's no problem but I'm sure there are people out there willing to learn new techniques just like myself.

If we go back to the origins of the post (including what was posted on birdforum) it was the friend who wanted the raw file because they were going to give the tutorial to the sender.
If I understand you correctly you are saying a tiff or jpg will contain the original data of the camera RAW file ? If that is what you are saying then I would very interested in knowing how on earth it is going to achieve that.

Hi Rob,
Thats what I am saying. Do an experiment. Take a picture in camera as a jpeg then follow the tutorial above, the part where you open in raw from bridge. You will then see that there is no data or it won't open. Then try it my way with the tutorial above and you will then see that you can open from bridge into camera raw and have full RAW data. I have to do this technique a lot. If you have ago let us know how you got on. Happy christmas. |
