Hi Scott,
Thanks for getting back to me. You are absolutely right. My point was just to mention that if your camera shows clipping, then you are at least close to clipping the raw file as well, so one should be a little careful, when clipping is seen.

I do find it slightly annoying that the jpg clips so much sooner – In studio shoots, where I want to blow out the background, it can be annoying to raise the whites slider in every single image just because the background was only blown out in the jpg preview (another great reason to shoot tehtered though)

In reply to Scott Kelby. I'm surprised no manufacturer allows those shooting raw to have highlight clipping shown from the raw perspective. I also don't understand why Nikon (at least, haven't read other manuals) never indicates which features do not apply to raw.

Bruno:

I think you’ll read here a bunch of different Lightroom tips and tricks – from beginning to expert. I think it would shock you to know how many people are just getting started in Lightroom.

These people want answers – just as you want tricks and tips.

Hope that helps!

“…no different than manipulating the Highlights and Shadows slider in the Basic panel below”

Depending on how far you are toward the right or left edge, it can also signify that you’re changing the Black and White sliders. The Histogram has several vertical sections, if you’re on the inner ones it’s the Highlights and Shadows being affected.

I like your blog. It has useful information, which I am sure is the motivation for presenting it – to help the photography community. What I find very unhelpful, however, is the often cryptic language that I find confusing. Colloquialisms may engender warm and ‘fuzzy’ feelings amongst friends, but when used in an educational environment (which I assume, however presumptuously, this blog is intended to be) can only serve to obfuscate and confuse one who is not conversant with the idiosynchracies of your culture.

You dig?
