I played with the image for a while and the highlights are unrecoverable. Traditional methods such as changing the blending mode will only take you so far as they can't create data which is ...

Rather than rubbing the head, you could invert it on a shallow plate and let it soak in some piezo flush.  Alternatively,  wet a paper towel and apply it to the surface.

Consider watching Stuart James videos on the topic. Although his sample images are hardly worthy the descriptions of the problems are spot on. Read through the user comments too. https://m.youtube. ...

A new magenta cart?  Not all clogs are simply related to the print head.  If a cartridge has clogs or doesn’t pressurize well, apparent deficiencies can result.  Had a similar problem years ago ...

Glad to hear that you’ve gained some success with the a7riv though a hummingbird around a static object is not the most challenging af test.  The other day, I was struggling with tracking some ...

Not a particular ISO and it has been reported by many seasoned photographers.  Perhaps the 1diii users were crazy too?

Again the issues of af with the a7riv and 200-600 have been well categorized.  It’s not the lens as they perform fine on the a9/a9ii but the combination.  Mark Smith and others have achieved high ...

What you didn’t consider is that the a7riv was tested with the 200-600 and their findings are fairly accurate with the combination.  With a 600 f/4 prime (which Mark Smith, Art Morris use) you may ...

It’s interesting as the only printer head which ever died on my was a Canon dye printer.  My Epsons wore out for other reasons but not from head failures.  Clogs were never a major issue though I ...

Really don’t know how to parse this.  Having two print head failures in two separate printers is either extremely bad luck or perhaps something else is involved?  I’ve had multiple printers from ...

Kubilay, PR NR is elementary and is ok for basic work.  To take it to the next level you'll need to employ a 3rd party program such as Topaz or Neat Image.  They are tone-deaf at On1 and have ...

Yes Hahanmuhle (as does Canson) produces some superior papers as you mentioned, however they are a bit pricey for my use.  Your questions are ones many of us grapple with and while you identified ...

Most inks are suspensions of particulates in an aqueous/glycol admixture.  They can contain varnishes, anti-fungal, and other compounds.  Generally, isopropyl alcohol will do little to unclog ...

I agree that PR is lousy with respect to sharpening and NR.  In fact it is unbelievably rudimentary and laughable compared to LR/PS, DxO, etc.  You'll do much better with a plug in and I use Topaz ...

That is a truly interesting question and since I no longer own multiple generations of printers, it would be difficult to determine.  Perhaps someone, I am thinking JR might have enough older ...

Fair point. Yes, that happens a lot.  When I'm printing to discern a difference I have to record the settings as frequently it's not that obvious. Likewise, for my 24" the rolls make sense.  Never ...

Your satisfaction is important, not what others think.  Personally, I am not a fan of the edge white bleed which I find distracting and dated.

It's an interesting proposition, however there are some size/weight advantages to the P900 as well as wider gamut, purported increased dmax, no black switching, etc.  Obviously, the P5000 offers ...

Maybe they can't?  I have many $k's invested in long Canon primes.  The corresponding FL's don't exist or are inordinately expensive in Sony. Great. Not in my experience.  The 200-600 doesn't focus ...

A9 has much more accurate AF, no blackout, and sensor read speeds. That may be. Yes.  With the latest version firmware, my long Canon lenses perform beautifully for static wildlife and BIF images ...
