Re: Why many settings arguments don't matter with RAW

That is quite interesting, and new information to me. Thanks!

In certain settings (ones which have high saturation of a particular
color), that could in theory get you quite a bit in terms of additional
range, as you can effectively expose for each channel separately.
Pretty cool stuff. I wonder how well it works in practice.
