[QUOTE="wwcanoer, post: 8845, member: 706"] Some questions regarding dental photography. 1. Any recommendations regarding the monitor. The one I am currently using is probably one of the first-generation flat screens that came out X years ago, and needs/should be replaced. 2. Is Photoshop an essential part of successful dental photography? I'm having a discussion with my boss regarding these issues. He feels that you should be able to take a photo, with shade tab, or rather a series of photos with different shade tabs and then have a true representation on the monitor screen, and be able to pick the correct shade. I disagree. I don't think things are accurate enough to do that. Not even close. The photos definitely help, but not to decide if it's an A2 or A3. These images are downloaded straight from the camera in Raw format and then called up using the Nikon program. So back to Photoshop. All the classes I've seen offered require that you have Photoshop, so to me that's a red flag saying that it's essential. But, is it for case presentation purposes, for shade selection, or just an aide for shade, or what? Thanks, Carol [/QUOTE]
