Re: MF 16 bit files only marginally better than 35mm??
Again, I'd disagree. Anyone can pull up a number of reasons why one camera (whatever it is, compact, micro 4/3, FF ....etc) is better than another. For me - Top of my list is image quality, resolution and clarity, colour rendition and dynamic range. After that it's "How big can I print this?" ..... everything after that… -
Re: link: fairly exotic nikon glass
Thanks Andy for your recommendation to this site. I have been a member of smugmug for 2 years now, but this is the first time on dgrin and my first post. I have a 100% mint Nikon 200mm f2.0G AF-S VR for sale. I posted the ad on fred miranda forum, in case anyone can not view the ad, here it is: Serial 201100 USA MODEL… -
Re: To create most recent folder and Gallery.
Hi David, excellent question. I'm going to offer a different solution than the "Feeds" option Denise suggested earlier. Instead, you could use a "Smart Gallery." 1. Create a new gallery called "Most Recent Photos" (you may have to delete your page with the same name first). 2. Select whatever settings you want and click… -
Re: too much "noise"
Problem is, DSLR is hard to deal with when you don't want to be encumbered. The LX3 noise profile is pretty decent - not as good as some of the earlier-model Fuji F series, but decent. @ TA-2D: just because a camera advertises it is capable of ISO 3200 doesn't mean its capable of producing anything useful. Usually, it's… -
Re: LCD's viewsonic, Dell or what
Fop the best colour accuracy and the least shift of gamma/brightness/colour when you move your eyes off center, try to buy a monitor that uses a S-IPS panel or a S-PVA panel. There are some new A-MVA just entering the market that are said to be good as well. In very general terms, stay away from TN panels (as found in the… -
Re: portrait help please!
Elaine, First, that’s a beautiful photo. I’m not an expert but here goes: The color seems way out of balance. I don’t know why it came out that way. I don’t know enough to go in and fix it locally. So I took it into cmyk and, at the bridge of the nose in that shadow, the readings are c-44 m-51 y-82 k-28. Okay, that’s… -
Re: Geometry
The window has some sort of wood slats behind it. I do not know more than that. And the EXIF data is: Camera Model Canon EOS-1D Mark II Shooting Date/Time 07/03/04 17:07:31 Shooting Mode Aperture-Priority AE Tv(Shutter Speed) 1/125 Av(Aperture Value) 11.0 Metering Mode Spot Metering Exposure Compensation 0 ISO Speed 200… -
Re: Terre Cotta Warriors
Thanks guys. The gradients are CG of course, but the subjects do not stand out as Noisy at all to me - even on my new monitor. I finally quit studying new monitors, and just set up my new LG 31 MU97. I like being able to tour museums and bring home nice memories in digital files - unfortunately that frequently means… -

Re: Let's talk about calendars
Thanks Chip I did a few variations and showed them to my wife. She preferred the full bleed/no text ones. Answers 1. Colors matched - I work on a calibrated iMac 2. Didn't profile; don't think they have one 3. sRGB I should add that I got a second batch of 5 copies to sell in a local store and noticed a bit of banding in…
