Recently, on a trip to Tokyo, I was shooting some nighttime scenery and set my white balance to Cloudy. The next day, I went out on a photo shoot and shot a bunch of photos in perfect daylight using the same white balance settingnot good. Normally, that might be a problem, but with Camera Raw in Photoshop CS2, it's an easy fix. Step OneIn Bridge, navigate to the photos that you'd like to edit. Select one photo, then Command-click (PC: Control-click) on several other photos to add them to the selection. ©MATT KLOSKOWSKI Step TwoPress the Return (PC: Enter) key to open these files in Camera Raw. The dialog will open showing the first photo (from Bridge) in the main preview area. However, if you look over to the left side, you'll see the other photos you opened, as well.
Step ThreeDon't do anything different yet. Just edit your photo as you normally would. In this case, I changed the White Balance setting from Cloudy to Daylight. This changes only the currently selected photo that is open in the main preview area. Step FourTo apply this edit to the rest of the photos, look in the top-left corner of the screen and click the Select All button. All of the photos along the left will then be selected for editing.
Step FiveNow click the Synchronize button. You'll see the Synchronize dialog open. Make sure that any setting changes you've made are checked here (in this case, White Balance). Click OK and Camera Raw will apply the same changes to all of the photos at once. That's all there is to it!
