A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

wanting to upload RAW photos but am being met with pink error screen when clicking next when it shows a preview on the app. i’ve never had an issue in the past shooting raw and uploading to IG, does anyone know or is having issues uploading?

Raws don't look a certain way - they're just sensor data. Any time you're looking at a picture, you're looking at raw data that has gone through extensive processing e.g. demosaicing, mapping from 12-14 bit down to 8 bit etc
