It is not clear what kinds of problems you are having. Most are caused by not understanding the calibration process and the particular calibration package being used, which may or may not apply in ...

There is far less perceptible difference between the performance of high end CPUs for most tasks than misleading bar graphs of nano-second throughput and marketing would have you believe. Although ...

I assume you have read the XT100 review on this web site. That review suggests the camera is useful only for obtaining still images at the lowest price point in the Fuji system. Both Fuji and Nikon ...

The problem with basing computer component choices on published tests of micro-second performance is that differences that look impressive on bar graphs often do not translate into perceptible ...

Numerous objective studies and my personal experience are that the user experiences no difference booting from an average SSD compared to a fast M2, something you can test for yourself. I have done ...

I think you might benefit from a review of color spaces and why it is more optimal to process raw files in a big color space even though the colors are just digital numbers that a monitor can not ...

Congratulations but I would assume you voided your warranty.

The basic components are actually very good for the price which includes the Windows license, something many forget about when thinking about building a PC. The downside of mass market econoboxes, ...

If you must stay in the Appleverse I agree that the most cost effective solutions for you are the 13 inch MBP with external monitor but if you have the space and do not need the portability of the ...

I have two Dell monitors. I feel your pain. The USB outputs of each Dell monitor has to be connected  to the computer in order to avoid the "cannot detect" problem. I know of no other solution. ...

Unless the monitors are set to the same luminance you can not compare them by eye. The eye sees what it expects or wants to see but calibration devices see what the monitor actually displays. Calib ...

Unless someone is routinely running programs that can utilize extra cores and threads the sad truth is that most programs do not saturate a 4 core CPU. As such I think you picked the sweet spot in ...

The 1030 is a waste of money vis a vis Intel Graphics on the CPU which will drive even a 4k monitor. The minimum GPU that adds value is an nVidia 1050 or AMD 550 but at current sale prices the AMD ...

You have essentially duplicated tests that have been done for years indicating that LR and PS processing are tied to the single fastest and most efficient CPU core because many if not most ...

It appears you are relying on the Intel Graphics. That integrated GPU can not draw a 4k screen in real time. That power supply in that Dell box may not have the cabling or the oomph to support the ...

If a manufacturer like Nikon, and now even Canon, has a 24mp sensor of whatever size that is the sensor that is in all its 24mp cameras regardless of differences in cost between different camera ...

Your note indicates that you need to do more reading, there is no way to spoon feed what you need to know. If you have a calibration device learn how to use it or get one and learn how to use it. T ...

I believe most if not all of these images are HDR as that is the forte of Mr. McIntyre. If so they are highly processed and might reveal more about the processing than the lens.

This is essentially a 4 core version of a core 2 duo processor. I had a custom built machine with similar specs and that was as fast as it got in 2008. There are caveats to upgrading a machine of ...

A few years ago I bought a Tamron lens from a third party seller off Amazon at a price too good to resist--in my defense it was late at night and wine was involved. It came in a plain brown ...
