how to convert from 40D RAW to web jpeg?

[danielyamseng]

Anyone know how to convert RAW/sRAW into jpeg image for web and with the exif info such as camera serial no,shooting info being removed?

I've tried to convert it to jpg using photoshop but the photo seems very dull.

Have tried with boosting image saturation and add sharpening but the image still look dull and doesn't look sharp,crispy and natural.

Please advice.

You need to make a few more adjustments in your RAW editor first. Jpegs are processed in camera to various parameters which you can choose, or allow the camera to use the default ones. RAWs are totally unprocessed, to allow you to process them yourself the way that YOU want, rather than how the camera thinks they should be done.

If you simply take a RAW shot and make a jpeg, without processing it first, you will get disappointing results.

Without knowing exactly what you're doing, all I can think of is that you're using Adobe RGB rather than sRGB. Most browsers don't display Adobe RGB that well.

FWIW, if you didn't know.. There are a lot of good tips over on the POTN RAW, Post Processing and Printing forum. http://photography-on-the.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=18
