ACR vs Canon DPP, What a difference

I found this out about the red conversion with DPP about a year ago. I shot the old fort in St Thomas which was a deep muddy red and ACR kept making it orange. DPP easily spit out the red. Bibble too got much closer to the red. But I haven't done any color test recently with the later versions of ARC. Flash: Four Weeks to Become a Better Photographer.

Make sure your bride knows what to expect from the photos due to this (high ISO means graininess in your images, you're limited on where you can go, etc.) One thing I do is to reenact the key shots (rings, kiss, candles, etc.) immediately after the ceremony, with the priest and wedding party back in their positions. Most clergy are fine with this. That way, you can have beautiful shots of these moments up close; just make sure everyone does exactly what they did in the ceremony the same way. Usually takes 5 minutes or so. Second, experiment with your camera, lenses, and at high ISO in the church beforehand, and review on your computer to get an idea of the proper settings for the amount of light there (which can vary widely).

Third, get some software that de-noises the images. What lenses for my digital SLR (Canon) Unbiased advice (really) though I do get some bucks if you use the store links.

What lenses for my digital SLR (Canon)

Many people eager for a high end digital camera buy a digital SLR body and then ask the question of what lens to put on it. Often they seek a wide-range zoom to duplicate what they could do with a point and shoot digital camera. Some have shot SLRs and film before, some P&S film, most P&S digital. Glasswing Butterfly.

Understanding White Balance. White balance (WB) is the process of removing unrealistic color casts, so that objects which appear white in person are rendered white in your photo. Proper camera white balance has to take into account the "color temperature" of a light source, which refers to the relative warmth or coolness of white light. Our eyes are very good at judging what is white under different light sources, but digital cameras often have great difficulty with auto white balance (AWB) — and can create unsightly blue, orange, or even green color casts. Understanding digital white balance can help you avoid these color casts, thereby improving your photos under a wider range of lighting conditions. Color Cast Daylight White Balance Color temperature describes the spectrum of light which is radiated from a "blackbody" with that surface temperature.
