Photoshop Technic ( Only for Photoshop CS3)

Okay, in this entry i will give you a brief introduction how to use Photoshop CS3 to edit JPG file as RAW file ! (how cool is it!). After that, i will show you how to use this fantastic feature to make the effect as the picture above.

First of all, to archive this feature:
1) In Mac OS X: Photoshop->references->File Handling->File Compatibility-> check the box Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG files. Press OK
2) Open a JPEG file, you should see the box below. This is the powerful tool to edit RAW file ( but now we can use it to edit JPEG file ^O^)

Now look closer to the right of this box you will see the Tab that allow you to modify picture. I will show you step by step how to go throw these Tabs.

Basic Tab:
Because the picture is not clear so i will write down these values and u just follow my instruction ^_^:

-Temperature:+64
-Tint : -66
- Exposure: -3.30
- Recovery : 0
- Fill Light: 5
- Blacks: 2
- Brightness: +150
- Contrast: +22
- Vibrance & Saturation: 0

Go to the next tab




Lens correction:

Lens vignetting: used to make 4 corners of the picture brighter or darker. In this case we set 4 corners darker (to focus to the object)














Camera Calibrication:
With this tab you can set the value of your image in 3 different channel colours: Red Grenn Blue

Shadows
Tint:-52

RedPrimary
Hue: -38
Saturation:- 16

Green Primary:
Hue:-38
Saturation:+8

Blue Primary:
Hue: -12
Saturation:-3

Presets Tab
By using the Presets tab, you can now save your settings for the next pictures.

Press the button in the right bottom ( next to the Trash).















IMPORTANT: If you now click on the Open Image button, Photoshop CS3 automatically modify your original pictrure!. To avoid that, press the alt button on your keyboard , the Open Image buuton will change to Open Copy, click on that and Photoshop will apply your settings to a copy of your original picture.

Now you can add border to your picture (by using Canvas Size tool) to make it look more professional.
