Hi,
As a fine art photographer using PV 2010, it was suggested by someone I consider an expert (the chair of the photography department at the Rhode Island School of Photography, Steve B. Smith), to reduce the contrast substantially, to about -20, and increase the Black slider several points to 5 or 8, depending on the photograph, naturally. This proved to work very well for my work.
In PV 2012, does this still stand? I did some experiments, and it seems to be slightly more complicated with the introduction or purposing of additional sliders.
Does anyone have an thoughts or suggestions on how to proceed?
Thanks! Steve
