![]() ![]() There are many options for editing JPG and TIF images, but for example if you only need to edit one or two JPG images here and there, it would be incredibly annoying to have to create a Lightroom Catalog every time you need to process a random JPG or TIF photo. As advanced as RAW image processing has gotten over the years, many people still color correct their JPG, TIF, and PSD images the old-fashioned way- in Photoshop! In addition to being restrictive and time consuming, this is a “destructive” editing method, as opposed to RAW processing which uses non-destructive editing. If Photoshop doesn’t have to “fire up” each time you need to process a random image in Camera Raw, you’ll save computer resources and your overall workflow will be much more smooth! 2.) Edit JPG & TIF Images Alongside RAW ImagesĪnother very handy option is for those of you who ever have to deal with editing JPG and TIF images. Once you check the box for “Double Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge”, you will be able to use Bridge independently of Photoshop for browsing archives, grabbing a quick RAW photo here and there, etc. To do this, go into your Adobe Bridge Preferences and look in the General tab, as below: The first thing you want to do is configure Bridge so that it can use the Adobe Camera Raw interface without needing to also open Photoshop. While many photographers use Lightroom as their primary workflow tool, Adobe Bridge CS6 is extremely useful for many different reasons, and here at SLR Lounge we use both programs side by side! The Video Both of these programs use what is called “non-destructive editing”, and allow you to batch edit large volumes of images at once. If you process high volumes of RAW photos, we highly recommend a Bridge or Lightroom workflow that is maximized for speed. (The SLR Lounge Preset System, for example, is created for Adobe Bridge CS6 and Lightroom 4 ONLY, because it relies on the 2012 Process Version to function) While this makes Adobe Bridge CS6 (and Adobe Lightroom) extremely powerful, it does mean that things like presets are NOT compatible between the programs. The main difference between Adobe Bridge CS6 and all previous versions is, of course, the new process version that has completely revolutionized RAW (non-destructive) processing techniques. Many of these tips may also be applicable to previous versions of Adobe Bridge, for those of you who have CS5 or CS4. ![]()
