Thanks for the feedback. I will try to take another today, in raw.

Didn't pumped light too much to cause a "nightly" feeling, but I will take these shadows in account this time.

Well no offense meant to RJ, but considering the time that the EXIF shows, that you capture the image, I prefer the original to RJ's attempt. It is jst too light RJ, the original has nice moody street lights. IMO of course, but YMMV.

Hi Allan,

My intent was not to change the mood of the shot, just to point out how much detail is captured by the Samsung sensor, and that shooting RAW would be useful, as my response to the OP's CC request.

Thank you.

You know, I still haven't got around to RAW in my NX's. I really should try it.

Hi Allan,

It is easy.

Just shoot Raw + Jpeg ( or P mode with Raw + Jpeg for the Auto route), and when you download your shoot, create a new folder inside your shoot's folder and label it RAW.

Group all items in the maing folder by type then drag the Raw files to your RAW folder. ( I know you know all this but I am just posting the process for new comers).

You don't have to bother with the Raw until you want to.

And when you do, Just open LR, select the Raw folder you want and you will be amazed at the 'power' Raw PP via LR (and DXO) gives you over your captures.

I always shoot RAW + Jpeg and using this file system, I have many shoots where I never needed to bother with the Raw files. Periodically I purge those I know I will not want to archive.

As they say 'Try it, you'll like it'.

Have a good day.
