Why do RAW files only show you 8 bit of the 14bit recorded? @WingTangWong - That is not it. A luminance histogram needs only a 1-bit display. The issue is that the entire 14-bit space is not represented in the horizontal axis. Ideally, I would like to see the whole space with clipping marks indicating which portion of the dynamic-range gets mapped into a JPEG based on current settings. |

Why do RAW files only show you 8 bit of the 14bit recorded? While the extremes may be used and the image would have a high overall contrast if the entire dynamic-range is used, micro-contrast would be extremely low, so things would lose texture and look as if seen through a thick fog. |

Why do RAW files only show you 8 bit of the 14bit recorded? Based on the reference question, I assume your are talking about the histogram on camera. An application shows you the histogram of the converted image. |

At which lux level do the Nikon 1 cameras switch from PDAF to contrast-detection? That is what Canon does but I have never heard of Nikon doing this. Do you have a source for this statement? Nikon's article says it switches between systems not that it uses both together. |

Overexposed images when using ring flash Perhaps there is a better answer but the general guideline is once you have an off-brand flash you need to take control. In any case, in Manual mode for both the camera and flash you should be able to get any exposure you want. |

How many “MegaPixels” can the human eye see? Yes, but I would like there to be an explanations of why those megapixels do not compare directly to that of a digital image. |

How do I take photographs of scientific laser products? Never done this but you will need some kind of vapor machine at least to get the colors to appear in the air. |

How Does Focus Differ Above and Below Water? Assume it corrects for it underwater, so does that mean in introduces the exact opposite focal-length shift for the portion above water? |

How Does Focus Differ Above and Below Water? If I were to plan a completely underwater shot, I may let AF do its thing but considering the premise of the question, I really need to know how focus and DOF differ, otherwise I have no clue what I can make work :( |

How Does Focus Differ Above and Below Water? It says to use a flat port if the shot starts above water. The others I read (4 or so), say to use a large dome port. |

How Does Focus Differ Above and Below Water? @AJHenderson - Oddly, that link suggested exactly the opposite as all other articles I read about split-underwater photography do! |

What Equipment Is Required For Split-Underwater Photography? Are you sure about that first paragraph? From what I've been reading so far, a lens cannot focus above and below water at the same time. |

What Equipment Is Required For Split-Underwater Photography? It seems worse than this. Focus is different. This article mentions split diopter filters which I have never seen. This one says to use a large dome but I have no idea if that is instead or with the said filter. |

How to increase the size (Kb) of image in photoshop Are the layers visible? JPEG only contain what is visible. Your image would have to be significantly more detailed which is why I suggested you increase its resolution first. |
