Best auto-level editors?

[Shuaze]

Okay I was given a DSLR and I use it like a PNS (Shoot on auto or a defined mode) most times. I willingly admit im an amateur.

I am looking for a program that is easy to use and would hopefully give me very nicely edited photos. Hopefully those that I can just press Auto-Level and be very satisfied with the results. any ideas? thanks!

Use Microsoft Picture Manager, open one of the JPEG files (you are shooting in Auto, so I guess RAW is not needed for your right?), use the auto adjust tool, and just select the whitest part in the photo. Everything will be adjusted nicely for you.

Auto-Leveling is as smart as the person that programs it, you really want those wow pictures, best is to learn some basics on RAW editing.

IMO, learn how to do it right the 1st time in-camera is better for TS.

Contrary to believe, getting it right in the camera at most can only help is the exposure, composition.

To get that detail, effects (wow), WB (down to the kelvin), you cannot avoid post-processing.

Photography doesn't end at just firing the shutter. Post processing is an art on it's own as well, followed by printing.

Acdsee... And adjust the tone curve... With a slight slanting "S"... So far that's what I remember for initially editing...
