I gather that the histograms in my camera are "valid" for the .jpg format,
1. My camera permits to adjust among other parameters, contrast. Then the histograms change for the same image.
I assume that this adjustment is only valid for the .jpg format and since I take pictures in RAW, there should be no real change.
Am I right?
2.Now when the RAW file is imported in LR, I have a similar histogram.
I assume that this histogram is the product of the interpretation of the raw data by LR
If I export from LR to PS the histogram in PS is similar but not quite the same.
This is a little confusing to me.
I can live with that but I wonder if I'm missing some tool or "weapon" that could make my life still easier.
Should I ignore this data or take it with a grain of salt? Or is it VERY important?
Thanks for any hints
