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.

Hello Y’all I have question for you guys/girls when I went to shoot for a football team I got home and uploaded the photos from my sd card to my pc and all the photos processed and got a tad brighter then I uploaded it all to my Lightroom classic and all were nicely bright as well but then when I exported from my light room to a folder all the photos were bright as well then when I uploaded it to Facebook to share it, all the photos were just darker you know why it does this?

If you’re shooting in RAW it’ll do that, I’d try shooting in JPEG. Either that or convert the photo to a JPEG after you do whatever you want with them

What do you mean I shoot in raw and when I view it on my pc it seems to make the photo a bit brighter

When using a camera each photo you take becomes a file, .jpeg or .raw, you should be able to switch between these in your cameras settings. Think of it like this a RAW file is something you want to edit whereas a JPEG is the finished product. I don’t know the exact reason why but whenever I view a .raw file on my computer the image brightens. I’m not the best at explaining these things but if you want to pm I’ll be more than happy to explain in better detail
