Yo

First time using the new CPL filter.
Still cant understand why saving as Jpeg's is killing the quality :/

Cheers

Last shot looks like a screenshot from gran turismo or forza!

What are you losing in terms of quality?

Sharpness, colours, contrast?

Do you mean saving to jpg in camera?
If so, then your losing information, which reduces post processing flexibility.

Nah I'm pp'ing raws in Lightroom, then right clicking and editing in PS, then saving as Jpeg, and the image always seems to pick up a hazey look,
The raws are fine, there fine in photoshop, but then when I save as Jpeg it goes hazey lol

Cos JPEG has terrible compression algorithms?

PNG>TIFF>JPEG is usually the order of quality.

Awesome! We all know the best way is sideways (I love drift!

)

colour profile maybe?

when i first started using lightroom a few days ago it was using a different colour profile from what i normally use (which is srgb as i upload to flickr). once i switched lightroom to using srgb the colours came back.

Cheers all
Colour space is sRGB on mine
