Thanks for this informative video. I shoot almost always in RAW and rely on the RAW editor to do much of my corrections. I find I do not need to do much to my photos in PSE other than to crop and save to PSD eventually JPEG when I want to share on FB, or to send by e-mail. Very often I use the haze removal feature with excellent results. I find that if you have decent your results with your pre-edit in the Camera Raw, the photo will be truly enriched with utilization of the haze removal feature, with little else to do. PS I'm still on an older version, PSE 2019, and recently upgraded my Mac to OS Monterey only to find that Organizer was no long effective as I lost the functionality of the card reader feature.
Yes I agree David. You will always have more editing scope with raw files because of the extra data but I wanted to demonstrate that the Camera Raw interface can sometimes be useful with jpegs. I also like Haze Removal which is accessed from the Enhance menu in Expert mode. I often lift the shadows first in camera raw, click “Open” to send into Expert mode and then use Haze Removal. It can really add some punch to a sky or to the highlights. Thanks for your comment.
Hi Lisa, I also use the basic panel to make overall adjustments. I find the sliders for highlights and shadows to be very useful. The exposure slider is also good for any images which are too dark or too bright.
Super video again Jon. Thank you for introducing me to RAW.

Thank you Jon, very helpful! Do you typically make any other photo edits in camera raw, or only the noise adjustments? Just curious.
