This bird is definitely not behaving normally. Duh. Trying to take the Pollyanna route here, perhaps this one was temporarily dazed by having a long session banging on the metal plate at the top ...

I started with a Praktica SLR 65 years ago. The biggest aid to better photography in the next 40 years was autofocus. But the bigger aid was going digital and the biggest step of all was editing ...

Have an M1 on which I replaced the LCD after my cousin's pit bull put the bite on it. Still works great. Got an M3 for my wife who refuses to use a camera without a viewfinder. When traveling my ...

As an amateur who won't be selling my images, the most important differences between photographing at home versus when traveling are (1) time and (2) memory. On the road you are always limited by ...

mfinley - it's not free, FCS. You're paying $10 a month. If you don't pay the $10, you don't get the feature. Your way of thinking is why casino owners get rich.

I really want to see a Mark V because then I'll be able to buy a used Mark IV for cheap (sorta).

Dear me. Somebody has not been looking at RX10 iii/iv lens tests.

Never tried uploading a large file. Let's see. Nope, forbidden file type. I've tried to put it on my Google drive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RQtSeOZhzpvjksP1KfypIjBd5Tq95vTC/view?usp=sharing

OK, here are some tests. (This is one of many images that Nat'l Geo has not offered to buy. It's a ten year old ISO 6400 shot.) I opened the RAW file in LR 6.14 and did my normal adjustments. I ...

Not for me. I can use AI Clear, which is the old Clear, but any other AI program (Gigapixel for instance) crashes.

Definitely did select DeepPrime - you have to export it to LR in order to have it take effect. (Obviously I came from LR with the file).

I can't use Topaz AI programs because I don't have a graphics card, just the Intel GPU on the motherboard. And only one PCI slot and it's occupied, so no graphics card for me. I downloaded DxO for ...

To each his own. I really really really wish Sony had put a focus stacking feature in as does Panasonic. IMHO, as a Sony user, Sony falls behind in features, at least in my models.

I've said it elsewhere on DP - with proper care in the digital darkroom it takes surprisingly few pixels to make a very good print. I've got a tack-sharp 13x19 on the wall made from a 4MP crop ...

Back in the good old film days I was snorkling with my Olympus OM-1 and a motor drive inside a flexible Ewa underwater bag. There was a little trickle of water coming into the bag - not good - and ...

Can't speak to Macs, but I do have an old Windows 2000 laptop just to run my Minolta Scan Duo slide copier. What's the market like for old IOS Macs?

My first 35mm camera was a Praktica. In 1956. I've had equipment envy right up until my Sony RX10 iii and RX100 iii. Now I'm done. The only camera I would buy is a good used RX10 for backup on a ...

Thought I'd see more Antarctica photos. A trip down there is definitely the most exotic I have ever made. Trouble is, anyone can take great photos because of the other-worldliness of the icebergs, ...

100% of the time. BUT, for all artificial light photos I find a bit that should be white and hit it with the LR adjustment arrow. Bottom line - fixing a RAW image in post is a lot easier than ...

To the OP: this has been a really good discussion. Regarding What To Do With My Photos it could go on forever. Keith's comment about options being limited by "the hanging committee" are probably ...
