Septimus Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 This problem has only just started it seems. When I import a Raw file it is very underexposed compared to looking at it in any other software - see attached. You can see the difference in the histogram compared to the in camera version. I'm shooting on an Olympus giving .ORF files All files are the same they appear about a stop to a stop and a half under exposed. I've tried changing the RAW engine to Apple but can see no difference.

Kodiak Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 • Personally, I see nothing so wrong within the persona window. The histogram is at the left because the recorded data contains, as I see it, no or very little high keys. The camera back screen is not showing a preview I would be happy with… pretty irrelevant as, mainly, the histogram is more revealing than the preview, and iIt clearly shows that no values are too low or too high for the DR. The difference in width of the histogram between the camera's and AP's tells me that AP is capable to work with much greater dynamic range than your camera does! The other thing is that the preview has value only for compositional considerations and focusing control in my book… though, with my high end bodies, these screen renditions are much better. Your second screen shot tells me that you have a decent RAW file to work with and that you should not worry! Go for it!
