Hi, Before you toss it out you may want to watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6Mmi0nvXC8 I am not familiar with the 4900 so this may not apply to it. However, I've been using a 7880 since ...

Dear thread, I feel for you, RIP Now, that is a twisted out dark humour........... :-) :-)  My wife never likes my jokes....... :-( Best, AIK

Man you did........ :-) :-) Nothing is too complicated here just some "professional egos" got out of the bottle.... ;-) Please take my advice, forget about the complicated explanations of colour ...

The top of the line X-Rite Spectrophotometer is a fine device. However, its small sister the X-Rite i1Studio Spectrophotometer reads patches as well. They are not as finely divided patches as the ...

Incorrect, a good RIP is a professional bonus but other printing workflow can take advantage of custom ICC profiling as well. I have a ColorBurst RIP but also print from PS6. The latter use my own ...

Hi, The i1Studio I referenced in my previous post is the replacement for the ColorMunki. I used to use the Munki for a couple of years then switched to the i1Studio. Perfect results for getting ...

Hi John, This is what I use for my workflow: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1369004-REG/x_rite_eostudio_i1studio.html I print on a 24" Epson Stylus Pro 7880, Ultrachrome K3 inks. This is an ...

Adding another image to this thread. A couple of cute Bufflehead ducks in a local wetland. The image is strongly cropped, about 50% of the whole frame of the Nikon D850. Furthermore, it was one of ...

Thanks for the comment Larry. Indeed the 150-600mm G2 Tamron seems like as the good balance between optical performance, weight, vibration control, weather seal, AF performance. The AF fine tune ...

Hi, As of expectations; if you want "much better" performance then it is a different league you need to target. Meaning a truckload of extra money. I use the Tamron 150-600 G2 lens and I use it for ...

The "Grip or no Grip" and the preferred use of buttons arguments, pro and con, reminds me of Swift's Gulliver in Lilliput. I loved that story as a kid, had a beautiful colour edition of that book. ...

It all boils down to the understanding of light in photography. That is basic knowledge photographers need to have.  Pushing the button of a sophisticated camera doesn't replace fundamental ...

Yes.  Just to make the thread a little longer........... :-) Best, AIK

Well, I am happy to hear that you lean towards the D850. I say this despite of that my suggestion was the Z7. Sounds like that you are "my kind of old timer". I've come up with this thought by ...

Hi, I am a DSLR fellow, simply because I am of the "old generation". I use the D850, it is excellent from landscape through macro to bird photography and everything in between. That said, if I'd ...

Hi, That Joshua tree trip is something I'd like to do one day. I have done a number of trips in Grand Teton and Yellowstone, they were fantastic. Traveled a lot in rural Wyoming too back when I ...

That is a good fantasy too  :-)  On the other hand, fantasy is fantasy and it is fun to daydream when not too much else to do. If our fantasies would always come true then we would be true future ...

............................. Absolutely, that is why I put it into my PS that this thread is about our fantasies. Just as the OP said, biting time in lock down and fantasizing. I rather would be ...

Hi, I would not mind one. The D4 and D4 felt so good and solid in my oversized hands. The D850 is fine with the battery holder as a second best but........ Now, I would compromise. A 24-30 MP ...

I am not going to be one of those early adopters testing a new camera and getting the bugs in the early versions....... ;-) :-) I'll wait till the Z1 will get updated or new firmware will be ...
