The AIC Guide to Digital Photography and Conservation Documentation
2011
Once your image shows up in Lightroom, click on the Develop module (upper right corner). From here you will check the Exposure,
White Balance and confirm the correct User Preset. If you are using a User Preset (DNG camera profile), the preset will be high-
lighted below in the Presets pane.
Adobe Lightroom - Exposure
Place your cursor over (but do not click) the light gray N8 patch of the ColorChecker next to the white patch (circled above in
red). Read the RGB values under the Histogram at the upper right corner. The light gray patch should be near 78% (+/- 2%). Note
that Lightroom displays RGB values as a percent (0-100% of 256) while Photoshop displays actual RGB values (0-256). If working in
Photoshop, this light gray N8 patch should read 200 RGB (+/- 5) while Lightroom should display it as 78% RGB (+/- 2%).
If you need to make minor adjustments to the exposure, double-click into the Exposure slider (0.00) at the side of the screen noted
above in red. With your cursor over the light gray patch, use the up or down arrow on the keyboard to increase or decrease the
exposure while viewing the RGB% values displayed just below the histogram. If you need to change exposure by more than half a
stop (+0.70 or -0.70) take the shot again and change the shutter speed in Nikon Camera Control Pro.

Appendix 7. 5
- The AIC Guide to Digital Photography and Conservation Documentation, second edition
A comprehensive guide on all aspects of digital photography of works of art and cultural heritage written
specifically for conservators and collections care custodians
. Topics include information on photography
equipment (including cameras, lenses, lights, printers, and software options); practical recommendations on the use of color
management, file formats, file naming protocols, and metadata; and advice on best practices for storage and backup of
electronic records. The second half of the book explains and illustrates photographic tools and techniques that are unique
to conservation documentation photography, including visible light, ultraviolet, and infrared photography. A color appendix
includes step-by-step screenshots of software applications to illustrate key aspects of digital photographic documentation.
With over 120 color figures, this expanded second edition is more than twice the size of the first edition and incorporates an
internal spiral binding to allow the book to lay flat. Awarded the Preservation Publication Award from the Society of American
Archivists, this book is an essential reference for the conservator’s library.
