    Todd, my RAW Fine Tuning option is grey’d out.. What do I do?

  3. Todd Garabedian says:

    You have to select a photo first.

  4. Trent Sizemore says:

    It would be greyed out if you’re trying to edit a JPEG. Maybe you aren’t
    importing the RAW? There’s an option on import to use RAW as original.

  5. Joanna Ceciliani says:

    No, still not working. I am wondering if it is a setting in the camera?

  6. Joanna Ceciliani says:

    My Raw fine tuning does not seem to be available after using my Canon 7D.
    Is there a setting on the camera I need to chane?

  7. Joanna Ceciliani says:

    Yes, but for some reason, the RAW fine tuning is grey’d out under the add
    adjustments pull down????

  8. Todd Garabedian says:

    You have to add it to the list of adjustments. In the adjustments pane,
    select Raw Fine Tuning from the dropdown menu on the left under the
    histogram at the top. The Raw Fine Tuning adjustment selections should now
    be shown. Now, select the gear icon across from the words Raw Fine Tuning,
    and choose Add to Default Set. This will make RFT show every time.

    Can you tell me exactly how to find that option and change it. I’ve looked
    and looked and looked!
