Hi everyone, I have not used Photoshop since CS2 - only use Lightroom 6 since many years. Now I would like to do a bit more surgical work on some images and consider buying a new piece of software. ...

All shot w rx1r in Myanmar and Thailand .

That‘s a good point! Seriously - my intent was not to stir up trouble on a gear forum by criticizing gear. I just stopped by for a technical question late 2020 and then stuck around a bit looking ...

Very interesting answer - just one small counter - you somewhat misread me. Note that my initial question is about photography in general while the remark with the illusion is about hobbyists. I ...

Yes I did - it did not interest me enough to keep it. It’s just stuff sitting around. I think nowadays a camera is basically still that plus some silicon! ;)  the thread here proves that there is ...

Your points are well taken and complement each other. Some of the innovations had been made more than ten years ago but the “democratization” in the sense of widespread market diffusion - took place ...

I can absolutely relate to that - I remember when Autostitch was released. It was sort of revolutionary - but limited to Jpeg if I recall correctly and it took hours (on my computer back then). ...

Sounds very good. For me, if I could make an 1/25s exposure that would end up on the  sensor like a 1/200s exposure - that create a substantial upgrade in effective resolution for me. And if my ...

I don‘t have experience with IS but I can fully imagine that! Doing a lot of (handheld) night street photography myself like the below IS is that one feature that could really bring some benefit. I ...

Good morning Gentlemen until recently I have not (really) been to dpreview for many years after I frequented it daily in the last decade. I have my camera equipment and it works for me, not felt ...

Yes unfortunately I stopped upgrading when they moved to subscription as I (being a hobbyist) don‘t believe in it. So will have to put up with the haze as much as the mountain itself has to ;)

Looks good, thanks - with Darltable you have almost the identical tonality in the foliage / rocks as I got in my LR edit!

Thanks Joachim also for the screenshots of the settings! I‘ll try to set up the same in Lightroom and see how it looks in softproof. Hope it won‘t let me regret that I already ordered the print!

Did you manage by now? I think you can just go ahead there!

I‘m exactly at that point right now. I don‘t mind spending a bit but it‘s usually ruinous to do this in a way that does good work justice. My favorite way to display art is with a shadow gap ...

The ZX1 is an interesting concept, but already one for the cabinet of curiousities. It‘s a wrong answer to the question how to utilize the processing power of a high end camera beyond actually...

Thanks guys for your suggestions and edits. Many of you suggested to increase contrast in the foliage and haze areas a little. I did that (via grad masks) and also hued the midtones a bit towards ...

Thanks for your go! Quite nice pop in the water color - did it hold up to that treatment?

Pretty good, the colors complement each other really well here!

Looks great, Thanks for doing a second attempt - guess that just happens sometimes, I have lost a whole vacation‘s worth of files once! 8x10 is a good idea. This shot was taken in Makalu Area, ...
