Been out today after Waxwings,got plenty of great shots or so I thought. On getting home and uploading to my computer I find that I had inadvertantly knocked my dial to M instead of AV as a result the pictures are a washout.:-C
The pictures were shot in RAW,is there any way of salvaging them?

Hi Geof is there anyway you could post a raw image so I could have a look, they maybe salvageable.

Hi Geoff:

The only way I know to recover is to decrease the exposure in your RAW conversion. I think you are probably too overexposed to salvage it though.

Its amazing how easy it is to accidentally change the dial. It seems like it is too stiff but it happens all the time.

Rectified the problem this morning by going back and getting some more shots with the right setting.

Not sure if you got that but you can edit the exposure and brightness settings if you shoot in raw in photoshop. If you need anymore help send me a PM and i will have a look at them. I personally shoot in TV or M as i find AV to slow.
