Background

A photographer just captured street scenes with a Leica Q3 and needs to post a preview to Instagram immediately.

Problem

The original DNG files are too large for direct upload and need basic brightness adjustments.

How to use

Quality: 90, Brightness: 1.15, Width: 2048

Outcome

A high-quality, web-optimized JPEG ready for instant social media upload with recovered midtones.

Background

How to use
