What you are missing is that when you edit in a wider color space you can work with colors that are not in a narrower color space. Even when you subsequently convert to the smaller color space ...

They're both from the same thread. Like so many topics at DPR, it can be contentious (indeed, far too many topics are unnecessarily contentious here, but I digress). That thread being locked ...

I still convert to sRGB, but that doesn't solve the problem of widespread poor calibration of monitors. I do exactly the opposite. Good luck with that. I would presume that their monitors are ...

Please define "top-tier."

I've handled three copies now, and I do see sample variation. That said, up-close is the real weakness with all the copies I've handled. I haven't used this lens as much as I thought I would -- ...

I now have a copy of this lens in my bag. It's definitely not a close-up lens (Laowa makes another 15mm specifically for that, which actually did work pretty well when I tried it out, but it ...

The D500 is the best camera I've ever handled (looking forward to a D850, hopefully this summer). I too appreciated the D300. In its day it was a sweet camera. This being a "blast from the past" ...

It's a common POV, and there's nothing wrong with that, but... DX isn't limited to just those uses. Tokina AT-X Pro 14-20mm f/2 Even when I'm doing more "typical" DX work, I am finding the Sigma ...

Thanks for the feedback. FWIW, I don't post or share here anymore (so maybe that solves half the issue for you), but I saw your reply when checking in on someone I follow.

Uh huh. The question I'm asking (rhetorically) in this thread is, why? My answer is that it's a cultural construct. Believing that isn't being a male chauvinist; OTOH, in my opinion, arguing that ...

"Common sense" relies on the fallacy that good sense is common.

That's my impression as well.

That wouldn't explain the widespread exclusion of women from all the arts.

Centuries yes; but not necessarily for millennia. Male domination is a cultural phenomenon, and culture is an abstract construct.

Agreed, so we should amend your original reply to, "...I have never blamed the oven." I think that's fair.

Okay, then that would be my oven, so let me rephrase my question because I think it goes to the heart of why gear might matter more than you believe it does. What if your oven only goes to 150° ...

What if your oven only goes to 300° and you need 400°?
