Thanks!

To me it makes sense to crop early so that one can focus on only the portion of the original image that one will be working on. however I see what you’re saying as well, thanks

Thanks- I like that quote.

If it’s converted for Astro work, is it only good for Astro shots?

Still learning....What is Capture sharpening, and how is that different from sharpening? i did read that sharpening is often done last, ie before you send image for printing. Maybe it’s just me, ...

I don’t use PS. I use C1, v20. I used the word Transform as that is what someone called it. Honestly without a description not too helpful I know. Could have called it “making the image level” I ...

Thanks people-I can’t remember which Nikon, thought it was the 750, which received very good reviews for its low light ability particularly with Astro-work. Maybe I’m wrong, and it was the 780.... ...

Would you please clarify why dpi is wrong? I only print letters, not images. I haven’t printed an image of any sort since the late 1990s into early 2000s and it wasn’t typical photography at all.

I’d like to see the case if you have a picture/s?

If only there was one perfect software hah

The market is changing, and Nikon is focusing its resources on mirrorless. But they aren’t quite there yet compared to Sony it seems. Might upgrade to a FF DSLR. I shoot landscape 99% of the time. ...

I loved it! What gear did you use?

I can focus on stars in LV with my D5500. You definitely can do it with your 810.

Ah now I see, thank you both.

Thanks. Actually I know about Airy Disk a bit for some scientific research I do. But I’ll refresh. When you wrote 2/3 rds of the stop value— 2/3 of what value, ie what value and how does one learn ...

This is how I knew digital processing as 2 different processes, like you mentioned above. I’m still a film person, and find digital daunting, and not because I’m not a software savvy person.

Thanks I agree with Cropping early.

Correct it’s a processing, not technically editing the data of a RAW file. I didn’t know with final output that software applied them out of sequence as you mentioned. Interesting! Im using Capture ...

Thanks- I have both Capture One 20, and the last stand alone version of Lightroom. Of course I have Nikon’s software too. I’ll have to post a RAW image, in Cap20 mini preview on the right side, ...

Transform is meant to be setting the image level, rotating it a bit if you have to, sorry.
