  • HELL NO! Enough is enough. Mama can I go more than 99 days offline? Sorry I need a product, not a service. Period. Moving to a pirate copy for free when Adobe CC arrives. :)

  • Big brother decided for us - 99 days, not 1 more! LMAO )))

  • That journal is one of the sources where I read that the advantage of RPP is applying the curves of the film emulations or whatever-you-call-them before demosaiCing. So you repeated my statement,...
  • Thank you for your answer! Raw Photo Processor (RPP) developers claim that their film styles (curves) are applied before demosaicing and thus make the iq of their convertor superior to others. That...
  • Hi, The default settings use "bright" jpg profile which produces colors with hue shifts that look poor imho. Also the files are oversaturated to worsen the situation. You can check the exact hue...

    Hi, I'll skip the theory behind that and just suggest my simple approach. This is the order of steps to develop a RAW file that I use in more than 90% of the cases: - WB - Exposure -...
  • Hello, Do you know which RAW convertors apply demosaicing after adjustments? I know that RPP for Mac OS does, but I am looking for Windows based software. Does Capture One Pro ver. 7 and further...
  • Hi, The X20 looks like a better camera to me. Here is my version of its output: X20 Have a great day/evening! Yanko

    Hi, Nice results from the D800 (though some slight front-focus, deliberate or not) and a really good looking model! Here is a RAW conversion straight out of Capture one. No additional PP or...

    Since you are using a Mac OS I suggest that you try Raw Photo Processor: Latest RPP 64bit version. It is better than ACR in terms of gradations, tones, colors and sharpness. It takes 10 min....

  • Hi, The default settings, as you noted, are no base for comparison as you will use them in no more than 1% of your shots for some time and later you will probably never use them. I hope you don't...
  • Actually it is quite simple for me personally - IQ can always get better and I don't mind. - Higher total resolution - Better per-pixel sharpness - DR a bit wider than K-5 at base ISO, much wider...

    Hi, You couldn't make a mistake in a win-win situation. You would've been right to get the D7100 just as you were right getting the K-5IIs. Better focus your efforts and curiosity at trying to make...

    Dave, Thanks - you uploaded the file right, the mistake is that it is recognized as a .html file, I downloaded the file and renamed it back to .raf - now it is OK. Here is a first attempt with...

    Hi, Many people adopted the "Silkypix/RFC sucks - ACR is times better" point of view before they really learned to use and understand how the Silkypix/RFC engine works and how it differs form...

    Not that I am going FF, but here is my case. Going FF will be easy for me since 90% of the time I use MF lenses and since I don't go neither too wide nor too long. If I had to go FF in 2013 I would...
