What is RAW Development? Editing

If described in terms of film, the concept of a RAW image is a shot
image not yet developed (latent image).

Images

With film, the image appears for the first time when it is developed. In
the same way, for RAW images too, you cannot view them as images on Reference
your computer unless you perform subsequent image signal processing.
Therefore, even though it is digital, this processing is called
“development”. RAW image data
Index
Image processing conditions information
When is RAW Development done?
DPP automatically carries out this “development” processing when
RAW images are displayed in DPP.
As a result, RAW images displayed in DPP are images whose
development processing has been completed.
With DPP, you can view, edit and print RAW images without having to be
particularly conscious of the development processing.

About the RGB Tool Palette

You can adjust images with the tool palette by switching between the Contents at
[RAW], [RGB] and [NR/Lens/ALO] tab sheets according to your editing a Glance
requirements.
The [RGB] tool palette functions are the same as ordinary image editing
software, such as tone curve adjustment that is explained here, with
which you can adjust RAW images.
However, because the adjustment width of the functions in the [RGB]

tool palette is wider than the [RAW] tool palette, the image color may be
saturated, or the image quality may deteriorate if you adjust too much.
Therefore we recommend for functions other than tone curve

Using the tool palette

Index
We recommend that as a general principle you edit RAW images using
the [RAW] tool palette. However, where the adjustment width with the
[RAW] tool palette is not wide enough and you wish to use the special
functions in the [RGB] tool palette, we recommend that you adjust your
images at the necessary lowest limit with the [RGB] tool palette after
having completed basic adjustment with the [RAW] tool palette.
Use the adjustment function of the [NR/Lens/ALO] tool palette (p.115)
when applying the Auto Lighting Optimizer (p.61), reducing noise (p.62)
or correcting aberration (p.63) after you have made any required
adjustments with the [RAW] and [RGB] tool palettes.
