I saw the same thing. Try it again with a fully-charged battery.  That worked for me.

Take a look at the Compucover website: http://compucover.com I have a couple of items from them, including a custom order vinyl cover for a 3880 that I am still using on my P800 (it's a bit too ...

I recall seeing some documentation or advertisement from Nikon which did, in fact, claim that it was possible to get something like 1800 shots when shooting RAW.  Sorry, but it's 3am here, and I'm ...

Maybe he has been spending too much time in " coffee shops ". ;-)

When I run a calibration, I note the position of the brightness slider in the Monitors preference panel.  I name the saved calibration to contain a cue for that position.  So, for example, the ...

So, here's the bottom line: do you really want to support your multi-thousand dollar camera and lens combo on a strap with 52 to 64 potential points of failure? I once owned a belt made in the...

A "bottom weighted" mat is cut so the bottom border is slightly larger than the top or sides. Finicky artistes claim that this actually appears to the eye as more pleasing or more balanced than a ...

Perhaps the firmware does indeed make a correction for field curvature. But if so, the engineers are pre-empting the photographers' creative decisions. How do they know whether I want best ...

I agree with everything in your post, and had a good laugh. But it's spooky how accurately the above paragraph describes my experiences after the D850 arrived. Including the cat on the sofa (who ...

The effects vary with different lens and camera combinations, obviously. I found an old spreadsheet in my backups, which contains some data from past attempts at AFFT calibrations. More recently, I ...

The OP mentioned that this camera had an odd sound when he shook it, as if something was loose inside.

Amen, brother.  And there are also variations caused by focus shift (when aperture closes down for the shot), field curvature, color temperature of ambient light, differences between PDAF sensor ...

I've had Airplane Mode turned on since I first set up the camera, but I'm still seeing rapid battery drain.

I am wondering about battery drain, too. The battery status page in my D850 currently shows 44% charge left after 78 shots.  On another cycle, I got about 200 shots before the charge level fell to ...

I tend to approach new software as you do - reading tutorials before using the product. If you contact PhaseOne and explain this, perhaps they might offer you a way to extend the trial.

I've been suspecting the same. I don't see how he could get such sharp focus and contrast without some artificial illumination.

I've used a product called ArtGlass WW (Water White). It has an AR coating, but is available with or without UV filtering. The version without UV filtering is not recommended if you want archival ...

Hard to believe indeed. I just tried to duplicate this type of shot, using one of our resident felines. I turned off the lights in my studio, leaving only the indirect illumination from a 27" ...

C1 does indeed have camera profiles - they are accessed in the color tab in the sidebar. But, for the Nikon DSLRs that I have used, C1 provides one profile for each, not a set of profiles for each ...
