    In Photoshop use “Save for Web & Devices” for the final image and select the “Embed Color Profile” and “Convert to sRGB” options.

    Change the colorspace to rgb.

    it hasn’t even been a week since I started doing headshots

    That’s the amazing thing, how easy photography is and how badly some people still manage to fuck it up.

    Of course it’s not about the gear, which is why I shoot with a potato. This also explains why teenage girls post Instagram photos better than most of the stuff you guys do.

    You: “shoot raw. new equipment eliminates the need for old light modifiers with great dynamic range.”

     

    You’re still having an imaginary conversation.

    If only it were within my capacity to say the right things and appease the mouth breathers, then I could bask in the validation of inconsequential nonentities. One can dream.

    It doesn’t matter what mode you shoot in if you get it right. It’s just very difficult to get it right in greenbox mode. But if you can make automatic functions work for you, you should use them. I shoot people in aperture priority most of the time. Always auto WB as it is irrelevant to raw files. I use autofocus as much as possible, especially with 1.2-1.8 lenses as it is faster and more accurate than any human. (It’s way more important to choose the correct place on the subject to focus and to actively utilize the autofocus points of your camera.) Although in some situations/with some gear manual focus is the best option. Photography is not a religious ritual. The idea is to get the best possible photos in the shortest period of time–to produce the best results at the lowest cost.

    Which statements shall I defend? Maybe when I explained basic photographic principles are no longer relevant? Or suggested that you ought to let the camera do everything for you? Those statements?

     

    Actually, I think generation Y. God you’re old. No wonder you’re so confused.

    In your hysterical fits of luddite rage you have both apparently taken comfort in attributing to me propositions you’ve fantasized. I can only guess those big fat vaginas you each possess are what make you so emotional and incapable of rational thinking.

     

    But I don’t need to say much regardless. There’s a little link at the bottom of each of my comments that does the talking for me. Where’s yours?

    Yes, I will prepare for the earth-shaking revelation he is sure to bestow upon me, you luddite. I can’t wait until cameras on cell phones (or whatever devices we’re carrying around in twenty years) can out-perform today’s entire photography studio. Think it’s impossible? Think harder.

    You’re going to be obsolete.

    Eyes are motion blurred. Making progress though.
