Mixing theory and practice, I cover raw capture and formats, exposure theory, blemish removal and details enhancement, bit-depths and colour spaces. All of the exercise files I use are available for you to download, along with a cheat sheet of keyboard shortcuts for both Bridge and Camera Raw.

I also focus on being efficient in the software, and encourage and demonstrate the use of keyboard shortcuts, presets, snapshots and taking control over default settings.
