Calibrate and recover a Maximum of Data
The purpose of this exercise is not to reach a final result but to prepare the image for editing and post-editing. When calibrating, we try to correct systematic shortcomings of our camera. When we edit, we try to drive a maximum of data out of our image, namely because the camera delivers jpeg files which compress away quite some data of which some can be recovered.
Once we have the best possible set of data, we can apply filters and presets with a foreseeable result.

However, it’s a nice bird, worthwhile to spend some time on
