The 27" LG 5K monitor that Apple sells for the 2016 MBP looks very similar to the iMac 5K.

There are lots of retina aware apps for OSX which will display image pixels 1:1 on the 5K set to 2560x1440 scaling. Most importantly Lightroom, Photoshop, etc. are retina aware. For Safari see ...

I recently changed from a 4K screen to a 5K screen for my MacBook Pro 15". The 5K screen is the LG that is engineered in cooperation between LG and Apple. The DPI of the screen is the same as on ...

It's hard to say as I have not tried the smaller tripod. I find the one I have very  good and not heavy at all and easy to travel with. I do not think I would gain anything by going for the larger ...

I use the RRS TVC-23 tripod, the TA-2-LB leveling base and the BH-55 ballhead with quick release. I also have the lens plate for the Canon 100-400 II lens. The tripod is reasonably light and fits ...

Nice article and since the 10D was also my first serious digital camera it was an interesting read. Btw. I did not have any problem with the 10D and the 24-70 F72.8L.

But the 1Ds was release...

For sunsets and landscapes higher ISO reduces dynamic range, so not a great idea. The best quality if shooting at base ISO.

I was subscribing for a while to his Youtube channel and unsubscribed again since I found his opinions sensationalistic and often not following logic. I think he is doing things to get more ...

I would recommend live view shooting in low light since live view has EFCS which makes for sharper pictures. This is especially important shooing with longer focal lengths like from 70mm and up.

As I said before in the previous post, the moon is not a good subject and it is not a good idea to test using an extender. Do a basic test as I suggested and find out if there is any issue with ...

There are really two things involved here: 1) You say the image quality is not as good as you expect it to be. You need to make tests to check if the image quality is as it should be. Shoot a ...

Overexposure has nothing to do with dynamic range. I agree the details are not as crisp as they could be on the 5DSR. If it is hand held which I suspect it is not bad at all at 1/15s. It would not ...

For landscapes as I shoot, half a stop does not make a real difference. For almost all landscapes the 5DSR has enough DR. For shot including the sun or close to the sun included, Lightroom has the ...

Thanks again for all the encouragements :)

Thanks for all the comments :)

Per tradition my best of 2016 shots http://www.hanskrusephotography.com/Landscapes/Best-of-2016/ They are shot with the Canon 5DSR using the lenses 11-24 f/4, 16-35 f/4 IS, 24-70 f/2.8 II and ...

Thanks Rick for your thoughts. I agree on the different steps. I like to go to the same locations. From a workshop perspective that makes a lot of sense, but would also do it if I did not run ...

Number 3 is an HDR merge in Lightroom, but that is only to compensate for the DR of the camera. It only gives a super RAW file that behaves like any raw file from the camera. The editing of the...

Probably not needed to say, but you need to get very close to the foreground at 11mm, I my shots at 11mm I had the tripod legs not extended and even spread so I could get close. This means ...

Thanks George :) My usual setup is the 70-200 f/4VR on the Nikon and for the rest I use the Canon. I use both systems so I'm used to both systems for my workshop guests who are typically Canon or ...
