The Noob Photographer’s Introduction to HSL Adjustments

One of the reasons why many professional photographers opt to shoot in RAW as opposed to JPEG is the versatility that RAW files offer during post-processing. RAW files are unprocessed images that contain all of the data your camera sensor is capable of capturing, whereas JPEGs are compressed files that have already been processed by your camera and contain significantly less information for you to work with during post. While you can certainly manipulate JPEGs in post-production, the wealth of data stored within each RAW file gives you significantly more freedom when processing your images. RAW editors give you near limitless possibilities to fine-tune the White Balance, Exposure, HSL (Hue, Saturation, and Lightness/Luminance), as well as a myriad of other values, allowing you to create a final image that matches your unique aesthetic and vision. In this tutorial, we will be focusing solely on HSL adjustments.
