Hi all,
An update: I have now written a free software utility (Mac only) to fix this problem for affected images — that is, images you've already shot which exhibit these artifacts.
Here's some informal documentation (overview, limitations, instructions, examples,…[Read more]

I had the same problem with my sensor and I pretty much just wrote off those images. Now that I know you have a software tool to correct the image I would like to go back through my affected images to see if if I have any I want to get you to fix for me if you don't mind.
No problem, Mark. Please email…[Read more]

Arif, I may also be able to help you regarding your current affected images (i.e., images that you've already shot that show the purple line). I have a software tool which I can use to patch bad (partial) columns/rows in the raw data. Let me know if you're interested.

I am curious about the relationship between radius and sharpening amount. For high detail scenarios, where you suggest reducing the radius to 0.5 or 0.6 (I use 0.8 by default), would you turn up the sharpening amount as well?Not necessarily. I think of Amount as a “volume” control and hence it's for…[Read more]

You can use high Detail amounts (even 100) with S2 files, but please do so carefully. High Detail means ACR/Lr will do its best to extract every ounce of detail & texture available in the file. This is almost always undesirable for portraits or perhaps even general-purpose use where a smoother result is preferred. But for extremely fine detail…[Read more]
