Bonjour mesdames et messieurs. In this video. I want to show you a really cool trick
where you can take a 12 million raw file and turn into a 50 million Raw file.
Why buy an expensive camera? Also,
I just want to tell you. I came up with a new book, on Lightroom,
which is called Lightroom natural drama. It's six different projects.
I show you exactly how you can retouch your raw files in a very specific.
Five-step way, five steps is exposure,
white balance, color refinement,
dodge and burn and final touches.
Check out the book. It's amazing. It's going to change the way you retouch your raw file.
You can get it by watching my webinar.
The link is under the video. Okay? Now,
let me show you that trick, so I want to show Really cool trick where you can turn your raw files,
like for example, this is a twelve million pixel raw file,
look at this. It's was shot with a Sony A7s III,
which is not even a camera. It's a video camera.
It's not a photo camera. It's a sensor that's really made for video.
So it does like really small photos. Basically,
12 million pixel. Check this out. I'm first going to use.
One of my presets, my new natural drama preset.
I'm going to go for blue hour I just want to do a quick retouching.
if you want to get my new preset.
You have to watch my latest master class in Tuscany,
which is under the video. Okay,
so that's my basic retouching. I'm just going to make sure my black point is good.
My white point is good. So you know just a really quick retouching.
I would spend more time on it.
But the video that I want to show you is that you can decide to boost a resolution before
or after the retouching.
So that's kind of cool. This is a. Let me see.
I'm guessing you have a couple of circles here. I'm going to put it here.
So you see the photo is still 12 million pixel,
now check this out. I have retouched the photo.
I'm going to right-click enhance and you have this new Option called super resolution.
And what's amazing about this I'm going to click on enhance, is that
it's going to multiply by 2 the resolution.
So the photo is going to become. Here you go.
The photo is here. You see it's got enhance in it and now It's an 8,000 by …
It's almost a 50 million pixel photo.
Okay, and it doesn't stop there,
you can. So this is the original and this is the boosted raw file,
and I believe, and I might be wrong because I know there's a lot of software that does that,
but because it's doing it on the raw level,
it's taking all the hidden data in the raw file.
And I think it's the right way to boost your photos.
You can literally have a camera as long as you should raw.
it’s a 12 Million pixel and you come up with 50 million pixel,
but I'm going to show you something even more crazy. So let's zoom in,
see, on the right side. You have the 12 million version on the left side.
You have the 50 million version. And so when I'm zooming in,
I can zoom in a lot more because I've got now a lot more details because it's a 50.
Look how sharp it is. It's a 50 million file instead of a 12-minute file.
Now, I'm going to show you something crazy cuz now I'm going to
take a file that was shot with the biggest,
most incredible camera on the planet Earth for landscape,
which is a Gfx Fuji 100S.
It's a 102 million medium format camera.
Look at this. It's 11,640 x 8736. It's 102 million pixel.
I'm going to right-click enhance and I'm going to apply to super-resolution.
Now. That's going to take a little more time. So,
see here it says, creating enhance dng.
I'm going to pause the video until it's done. Boom.
We're done. Look at the resolution 23,296x17,472.
This is a 400 million pixel raw file.
You heard me right? Imagine you have to
and I'm actually going to make a huge print of this photo so,
I'm really happy, more details, the better.
Let's retouch it. I'm going to use my golden. This was a nice
golden hour just to begin of the golden hour.
So I'm going to use one of my new preset, the golden Hour,
full magenta, boom and maybe a little more.
you see, it’s a little too much. So here is the circle.
This is a little too much. I'm just going to adjust it.
Yes, that's kind of cool actually want to lower the vibrance on this one,
but look at that. And let's compare this. Now to the 100 million pixel version.
Look how much more details I have on this, this is the 400 million pixel file.
This is the 100 million pixel file, I mean,
I can zoom in so much. Look at that.
Look at that. And it's going to take a while to render.
It took a while to render. Because it's such a big file.
But if you're like me and you're doing big big prints,
this will just get you more details
because I really truly believe that the fact of doing it at the raw level instead of doing,
you know, with a TIFF … because when you go into a TIFF,
you have a lot of loss information in a highlights and shadows.
And so also, don't forget to watch my Tuscany webinar if you want to get my new presets,
I'm going to show you, I came up with three new courses.
One on bad weather, one on black and white the best black and white
course I've ever done and my whole new presets with a lot of new training
and also coaching if you want me to coach you,
it's I'm taking only a limited amount of people
but you can find out by watching the Tuscany webinar.
That's right under this video. I hope that's going to encourage you to boost your raw file
and make amazing print, can I ask you for just one quick favor.
If you can like this video, it makes a huge difference for me,
really helps me to get other people to watch it.
And it really helps me to make free videos for you every week.
Just a small like goes a long way. Thank you very much!
