Default Re: Basic tips/techniques for conversions?

Hello,

Forgot to ask: about the expose for shadows and develop for highlights...

I've never really used film. I'm old enough, but I wasn't really into photography before the digital revolution.

I'm not sure I understand the difference in the digital world. The way I read it now is this: for digital, expose the highlights correctly (thus getting a darker photo), then correct the darkness with an editor.

I've read somewhere that with a digital camera, we should "expose right", thus getting brighter images, which we then "darken" with an editor.

Right now I'm not sure which is better!

Loa
