AP NEWS VALUES & PRINCIPLES/IMAGES

AP NEWS VALUES & PRINCIPLES/IMAGES:

（为清楚明了，重新编排如下）

Acceptable

*Only retouching or the use of the cloning tool to eliminate dust on camera sensors and scratches on scanned negatives or scanned prints are acceptable.

*Minor adjustments in Photoshop are acceptable. These include

- cropping (剪切)

- dodging （局部提亮）

- burning, （局部变暗）

- conversion into grayscale （转黑白）

- normal toning and color adjustments （色调和色彩调整）

All adjustments should be limited to those minimally necessary for clear and accurate reproduction (analogous to the burning and dodging previously used in darkroom processing of images) and that restore the authentic nature of the photograph.

（只允许以上PS微小调整。锐化并未提及，似不允许）

 

Not Acceptable

* The content of a photograph must not be altered in Photoshop or by any other means.

*No element should be digitally added to or subtracted from any photograph. （不可增加或减少照片元素。 依此规则，Narciso Contreras不冤）

* The faces or identities of individuals must not be obscured by Photoshop or any other editing tool.

* Changes in density, contrast, color and saturation levels that substantially alter the original scene are not acceptable.

* Backgrounds should not be digitally blurred or eliminated by burning down or by aggressive toning.

* The removal of “red eye” from photographs is not permissible.（呵呵）

*Except as described herein, we do not stage, pose or re-enact events. When we shoot video, environmental portraits, or photograph subjects in a studio care should be taken to avoid, misleading viewers to believe that the moment was spontaneously captured in the course of gathering the news. In the cases of portraits, fashion or home design illustrations, any intervention should be revealed in the caption and special instructions box so it can’t be mistaken as an attempt to deceive. （摆拍需说明，以免误导）

 

（此规则要求严格，仅限于新闻摄影。）
