pocketable huh?

Hello, I use PC for editing. One of the few advantages of PC system is it's cheapness and modularness. I would be using Macs, but the simple fact is you can get a lot more hardwares for the same...

Hi I have owned the D50 for about 6 years now, so I think I can weigh in on this. The D50 performs very well in low light even with its older generation CCD sensor, this you undoubtedly know. It...

Showing before/after disaster photos? I've shown people those. Sure they ask about the location, but they either know the place or they don't. When they don't, how does knowing exactly where it is...

You can do run any single image through the HDR process, but the results won't be very good especially when there are deep shadows. Even if deep shadows are recoverable, there will still be a lot...

don't get it. when was the last time you showed someone some vacation photos and you said "Oh this was taken in blah...", then they asked "No but where exactly? Show me the GPS positioning".

Well, the more we have to work with the more we can experiment and bring our interpretation of an image into reality. Isn't that always a good thing?

I'm sorry but I don't really understand what you mean. The whole point of this thread is to show that current range of DR isn't good enough. It may not matter to you because of the way you...

I’ve been scouring these forums for a long time for technical information and tips, but over the years I noticed there are much misinformation or lack of it here. Just want to share some experience...

That's a really great analogy, and I really like pies.

Hey no worries if you can't see the difference, it takes practice. The unfortunate thing is once you can see the difference, you can't unsee them. That is what compels alot of us to keep shooting...

The fact is RAW has superior image quality but requires time, JPEG is fast and smaller but has inferior image quality. Each format's strength is the other's weakness, it comes down to what...

Great fantastic, there´s nothing wrong with shooting JPEG. But you can´t deny the fact there is a difference between the two and it´s quite significant for some of us. The other issue is whether...

Hi the difference in image quality between JPEG and RAW is significant for me. LX3 is an old camera and its JPEG engine is quite poor, it really doesn't do the sensor + lens any justice. The JPEG...

Seriously, there's no problem and you are trying to create one.

Wow this thread almost made it without someone taking things personal, well one can always dream. Silkypix does the same distortion correction and yields almost the same results as ACR, and I don't...

But that's exactly my point. If the RAW converter has compulsory 'interpretations' ie. distortion correction that you can't turn off then it defeats the purpose of shooting RAW. I would like to be...

It would have been nice if they unlocked the distortion correction in RAW. It´s just good to know RAW is untouched, I mean that´s the whole reason we shoot RAW right? Unfortunately it seems like no...

I'm not complaining about anything, I like to know how things work. Also no one here is talking about barrel distortion. Also software correction can only remove distortion at the expense of...

Hi Luc de Schepper, thank you for your reply. I should explain that the corner performance is poor at maximum aperture, especially at 16:9 mode. But it is acceptable when stopped down. It is...
