DEFAULT APPR. LEVEL
The Instant Approval Architecture system helps you to evalu-
ate and mark each image based on how well it has come out. By
default, the system assigns an initial approval status for each new
shot based on an analysis of the distribution of exposure levels. In
the factory configuration, the status of each new shot is assigned
as follows:
• Green (approved):
The new shot seems to have been exposed correctly.
• Yellow / Amber (unclassified):
The new shot seems to have been over- or under-exposed.
However, you might choose instead to override this system and
have all new shots assigned either as green or yellow, regardless
of the exposure analysis results. A typical strategy could be to as-
sign all shots to yellow and then review all of the shots later and
promote only the best ones to green status. At the same time you
might demote the most doubtful shots to red status.
