Question to point me in the right direction for a workflow using DNG. I currently ingest DNGs to a working directory. I do initial review work on these DNGs in Bridge for keepers. Then I ingest into Lightroom for metadata and development work. Eventually, I will create TIFF derivatives for prints or further work in Photoshop. I am wondering about the best time to employ creative and output sharpening in this process.
Is is appropriate to Capture Sharpen using either a droplet or Batching from CS3 of the folder of DNGs before I ingest into Lightroom?
Is working in DNG the same as working with TIFF vis-a-vis PhotoKit Sharpening?
Is it appropriate to apply Output Sharpening on the DNGs after initial development processing in Lightroom or should it be applied only to derivatives?
