Photoshop CS2 question

[tammie_hankins]

I am currently us Photoshop CS2. I want to select 7 photos and make exposure

corrections to all 7 at the same time. I am a sports photographer and have

been making my adjustments one photo at a time. This workflow is to time

consuming! I would appreciate any help!

the only way I know is to make an "Action" set to perform a routine on all the images in a folder. Google "Photoshop" and "action" and "batch processing" for detail directions. Don't forget, everytime you save a jpg it degrades the quality, so you might want to convert them to tiffs (if you know that you are going to pull them up several times), then make changes and then save them.

 

I usually use a program by cerious software called thumbsplus for making batch changs. It is pretty cost effective ... less than 70 bucks I believe.

 

 

Good luck,

 

Michael.

I use CS2 and Bridge (with RAW images), on a Mac OSX. I am able to manipulate white

balance, exposure, etc., for one image then apply that change to others that have the same

characteristics. It does save a lot of time.

 

There's a video that shows a sample of this type of task at the WhiBal website:

Adobe might have some video tutorials as well.
