i've been a proud owner of a d70 for years now and i don't think i'm using it to its full potential.
i've been researching on the web for a few weeks about color management and workflow. what exactly do i need to get the ball rolling on proper color management and a good workflow for my d70? ultimately, i just want to shoot great photos that edit great and print great.
i don't have a display calibrator. i might invest in one later but now's not the time. i'm not sure also if the d70 color profile is installed on my mac. chances are, it isn't. i don't think i need this right? when i import the raw NEF into aperture, it'll convert for me right? maybe this is where it's going wrong!
i've got aperture installed and have been using it just to archive photos and just do some basic photo editing like exposure settings, etc. i've been editing almost every photo i take to make it look decent!! i'm tired of it! i want them looking decent from the get go. what am i doing wrong?
i've heard of these plugins that i can use with aperture. are they any good? they're all "demos" on apple's site and i'm wondering how effective that is?
please help.
