    I have a finepix S3400 camera,
    & I would like to know what the
    AE BKT EV STEPS are &
    how to set them for good results.

    What if you don’t edit, should you use a neutral profile then?

    This only works if you’re using the software from the manufacturer. I use a
    5D and can set it any way I like but once the images are loaded into
    Aperture3 the program does what it does and you have to work from there.
    Just a thought . . .

    Pros should be using raw in the first place making this a completely moot
    point.

    @r319 Porque puedes aumentar el contraste de una imagen todo lo que quieras
    pero no puedes disminuirlo si la imagen esta con mucho contraste o
    saturación.

    Note: the image displayed on the back of your Canon camera’s screen is
    always in JPEG format even if you are shooting RAW.

    Does anyone know what is on the videos labeled private, and why they are
    private? Thanks!

    @r319 En si lo que dice es que al comprar una camara no te fies de las que
    se ven con mayor contraste porque las empresas se lo aumentan para que veas
    la foto mas padre pero si aumentas mucho el contraste los colores empiezan
    a parecerse los mismos (Cuando puso los cuadros de colores y el rojo y el
    naranja se hicieron del mismo tono) Entonces lo que el te dice es que
    cambies la configuración de contraste a ceros (0,0,0,0) para que después en
    la compu puedas mejorar el contraste 🙂

    Thank you for the video. I wonder if it is worth it to set ALL the settings
    to 0? Or would that create more work in post than needed?

    @cigarobsession Right on. Many pros (and advanced amateurs like myself) use
    raw files only. So any setting you will choose on your camera will only
    impact the embedded preview, because raw files have exactly what the sensor
    captured (all the rest is metadata).
