| | | If this is helpful at all- Processed slightly in Lightroom. Best to get as much of the shot right as you can when you take the shot. All of these are recent-ish. Also, as a note- a camera manufacturer's proprietary software kind of locks you into one brand, is often clunky and cumbersome, and is quite limiting.

| | | My two cents...If you're looking for free/cheap software to use for editing, there are some options out there. For Raw processing, photo correction, color correction, filters, luts, etc., you can use Adobe Lightroom or an alternative. For software that functions like Adobe Lightroom, you can always use RawTherapee or LightZone. Both are open-source and won't cost you a monthly subscription. I haven't used LightZone so I can't vouch for it but RawTherapee is pretty nice. For heavy editing, there's Photoshop or one of the several Photoshop alternatives. If you're looking for free/open-source, then Gimp might be the way to go for you. If you're okay with paying a one time fee of $50, Affinity Photo is a nice piece of software.

| | | Posted by Adv.Pack I don't have any opinion on what software to use. My only suggestion is, make it look as true to life as possible. Remember what the scene looks like in person, then match that look while editing. I shoot film because it gets me closer to reality with less editing. My opinion.
| I feel you... and agree about keeping it real. With digital you need to color calibrated your monitor and throughput. Otherwise you have no baseline. Establishing proper WB is important. It's also important the editing room not be too brightly lite. Neutral grey colors on the screen and surrounding the monitor are best. DPP comes bundled with Canon cams or can be downloaded, is free and works well for basic editing including, WB and lense correction on selected cam models and lens. Used to be only L lenses and pro cams had that support but this may have changed in the last decade. The way it's set up, it is lossless; it always retains the original image automatically. In thousands of images it's never lost even one original image.

| | | I usually use paint.net, since it's free and has lots of modules you can download to add even more functionality. When editing my pictures before posting I usually touch up the brightness, contrast, color saturation, noise level, sharpness, and occasionally correct any tilt in the picture. I've found that even though it's fairly simple in terms of what paint.net can do, I can usually make the shots turn out the way I want. It's also got an easy option to make the photo black and white or sepia, as well as layering images to create artsy effects.
