Often I see the question raised "How can I get a filmic look?" My answer invariably is to buy a Fuji S5 Pro. The reason is simple. Color negative film is known for being somewhat low resolution, a ...

These are the reasons I shoot older digital cameras. Most cameras made post 2008 have weaker color filters (CFA’s) that sacrifice a little color fidelity for better high-ISO performance and higher ...

My bias here would be to preserve the colors over trying to pull out too much detail. LR, Luminar, Masked Smart Sharpen fPrime

I’ve got two of them myself, Bob. Always wise to have a backup copy of this classic body… just in case!

Best portrait kit at any price point: Fuji S5 Pro with a Nikkor 85/1.4D.

Nothing else on your list renders skin tones as well as the S5 Pro and you can put together a kit for under a $1,000.

Thanks for adding these, Bob. Nothing beats looking at h2h comparisons. DPR’s camera galleries often don’t have much value to me because they’ve decided to not shoot their galleries alongside a ...

I find the XT cameras are all pretty good and the lenses are excellent, but looking at their DPR galleries I honestly I can’t tell the difference between their output and that from any Sony, ...

I did one with the XT-2 three years ago… https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/61513301 fPrime

Hi Jared, The reason I said the S5 Pro renders images that look more filmic are all directly related to the sensor. I don't know about you, but I recall 35mm film as being somewhat low res and ...

In my humble opinion both the D200 and S5 Pro are CCD color kings in their own right. Because of its skin tone color science I consider the S5 Pro to be slightly better for photographing people ...

Thanks for sharing your DPP settings, Bas. Interesting to learn that you shifted the 6D from green towards magenta. This reminds me of a thread several years ago where I was lamenting the ...

5D Lightroom 5000K 0T 6D Lightroom 5550K 0T Thanks again for taking these comparison shots and providing the RAW files, Bas! Here's what I found working with the RAWs in Lightroom... the 6D was ...

Hi Bas, It worked perfectly, thanks. Will have a closer look at the files tomorrow. fPrime

Thanks for taking the time to do a comparison! Not bad for no tripod. You got the FOV very consistent. I find the same to be true. The 5D seems to separate or "pop out" the color contrast better ...

Ungraded skin tones in the R5 and R3 video look much more natural than the graded skin tones from the Panasonic S1R that DPReview TV usually uses.

Thanks, it would be good to see the SOOC jpegs posted and a link to the RAWs. I recommend using WeTransfer for transferring RAW’s as it’s free and provides download links. Pick a scene that has a ...

Would you be kind enough to give us a h2h comparison, Bas, with the same lens? And please in also RAW in case some of us would like to see the comparison under our own workflows? Thanks! fPrime

Thanks! I think the differences are obvious too. The reason I posted the LR screen captures of the D3s and D500 instead of the output is because many people would otherwise conclude I must have ...

It looks like we just fundamentally disagree, my friend. You don’t like DPR’s down-sampling methods, I don’t like the fact that they didn’t apply “Enhance Details” to their samples. You present ...
