I want a dual sensor S3…that can switch back and forth between B&W and color by rotating a dial. And I'd like royalties if they implement my idea… 🙂
Back and forth on this as it would not be in addition to my M9…the high ISO is really appealing to me as that's the kind of photography that I am shooting. Need to see the difference between this one and converted M9 images using Silver Efex…
Must have been the rocket blower but just in case I've stopped cleaning my sensors with the gas station tire pumps. As for my models… they're more likely to melt the lens;)
I like this one Jack…the perspective reinforces the massiveness of the rocks. Good to see you're still using your ND filters. Hoping to give mine a workout next week.
Gorgeous…nice work on these.
Hopefully these issues will be addressed very shortly in LR 4.1
About 1min 15 secs for the same number of images with the same settings. The problem manifested itself for me when I needed to process a few hundred images for upload to the web so the client could make selections. That process took well over half an hour which seemed awfully slow. But at 7.5 secs per image…it makes sense.
Al, the performance issues for LR 4 are apparently very common. I'm sure that Adobe will address them…just a question of how soon. You can download the free trial and see if you have problems on your machine. I'm still using it for adjustments but the slowness in exports is annoying. And I don't need any excuses to enjoy a good mojito…although I do prefer a Caipirinha these days 🙂
+1 Well done!!
Thinking maybe I should have waited a while before touting LR4. Recently tried to export 200+ S2 DNG's to relatively small jpegs and it takes forever. Much, much slower than LR3. Probably best to wait a while before making the changeover. I would have thought that after the extensive beta testing Adobe would have worked these kinds of bugs out…
You're quite welcome…here's a link you might find informative.
It seems to me that the new sliders (Highlights, Whites, Shadows, Blacks) in the Basic section of the Develop module allow for better control over the way the image is rendered. The attached Nikon D3S image (using LR4) is a shot that I had worked up in LR 3 but was not happy with. Couldn't lighten up the faces and the horses without the rest of the image getting funky. Granted this could be attributed to shortcomings in my post processing skills with LR3…but the fact is that I couldn't get it where I wanted it before and now I can. For those who do upgrade I'd suggest watching a few tutorials since the tweaking workflow has changed a bit. There are a number of other improvements, e.g. mapping, making books, etc. that are impressive as well but it's these Develop sliders that I was referring to.
Hasn't happened to me on the few occasions that I've shot tethered…also to LR3.
You are a brave man to consider taking your S2 scuba diving. If I were still shooting underwater images I think I'd rather buy a dedicated DSLR and appropriate housing. I still have my Light and Motion housing with an early Olympus digital camera, lights, etc. Found it quite challenging to get good underwater images. But please keep us posted on your progress…
The second shot posted isn't as sharp as I would have liked but I still liked it enough to consider a keeper. Kind of a grab shot as we were wrapping up and walking back towards the car. Funny how often something like that becomes a favorite…
