Default Re: Posed Dance Portraits

i am currently working on dance pics myself. i shot with a rim, a main up high and a fill low on the other side. used a large softbox for the main, umbrella on the fill and straight for the rim. and i dont think songman meant no processing but the PP you are talking about would take forever! I do that for the dance shots that i am doing for me, not what i am shoot en mass. about the only thing i do is hit f3, which does a minor level adjust, sharpen, and closes the pic. or use the batch tool. and this is even taking me months. they would never get their images if i shot raw, converted, hdr'd and all that! besides, you should get it right in camera and not have to do a lot to it. (of course for those wow shots that are special i take time out to do all that.)
