settings as the default for a specific camera. For example, if you find that the Linear setting in the Curve tab works
best with the images from your camera, you can choose Linear from the Tone Curve menu and then choose Save New
Camera Raw Defaults from the Adobe Camera Raw dialog box menu. In the future, a Linear tone curve will be applied
to images from the same camera. See "To save or reset Camera Raw settings" on page 223
