Tack Sharp from the Camera

[Rob Kaz]

This an edited version of a pic I posted earlier.

I cropped it , and boosted the saturation 14% in PS...that seemed to be enough for me.

I have my monitor set to sRGB specs on a G4 Mac, I know most people use Windows specs.
Does this look ok on Windows machines too?

Thanks

Rob

Rob:

You are doing beautifully with the D70. I watched with interest your thread the other day as I have been getting the same results as you with the soft photos, etc. I have figured it to be me so I continue to practice an lelarn, etc...What are you doing differently these days?

Yep looks sharp to me..dual processor G5.

What sort of monitor are you using on the G4?

Using this link to guide me I spent several hours (mostly testing) fine tuning the focus , and as of this moment it seems to be spot on sharp in all aplications...
here is the link.....

Please tell me how you did that...absolutely incredible.

I place a white chopping board behind the bowl of water,

my sb800 behind that in remote mode, and dropped a lime into the water...SEVERAL TIMES!!!
and manually hit the shutter release.
It is the first time for me trying this...it was very fun, and WET....
Here is the link to the small but entire "Water" gallery..

Any chance we could get a small crop at 100% ??

Some of my pic look real sharp at less then 100%, but leave something to be desired when viewed at full res.

Thanks

I should have read your profile.

Since you have the Apple LCD screen I'm wondering why you are not using the profile supplied by Apple. It has always been my understanding (there's that important word again) that using a "strange profile" (which this certainly would appear to be for the Apple LCD) was a Bad Thing. And yes, I understand that Mac screens have a default gamma of 1.8 and peecee screens are 2.2.

I hope you or someone else can clarify this issue.

Or go to the page for full exif and sizes.
The full size original is there...it looks pretty sharp...

I wish I could clear it up..

I did "fine tune" my screen uusing the sRGB setting as a starting point, as yes the gamma was wack..had to bring it down a bit...I don't remember the exact ammount...

But things look GREAT on my monitor...that's why I posted this thread to see if it looked good to others...

Rob,

I remember previously you've had some doubts about D70/sharpness. Here is one for you, untouched except for 20 USM in NC.
