Hello, I'm reblogging from my personal blog, but it is still me.

The Frogman.

The only difference is I'm 18% more pretentious here.

I decided to make this a video so I could show and tell at the same time. I start with some feedback of your photos and then I did some basic edits on them to give you an idea of how that works. I'm afraid I ramble a bit so this ended up being 30 minutes long, but I'm hoping the information density is good and you can learn a lot from it.

I mentioned some software in the video...

Free RAW Editors Darktable RawTherapee

Paid RAW Editors Lightroom Capture One DXO Photo Lab

I forgot to mention DXO, but it is also very good and worth a trial if you need an Adobe alternative.

Lightroom does have a free trial. And I mentioned the Photography plan that includes Photoshop, but I can't seem to find the $10 version of that.

I know you need to select only 20 GB of cloud storage to get it. But I'm not finding it on their website. So they either hid that plan to make it hard to find or they don't offer it anymore.

But Lightroom alone is $10 per month. Just remember you are committing to a year of payments when signing up. You will be charged a fee for canceling earlier.

My god, it's so hard to recommend Adobe products these days. They are so far ahead of everyone and they are the best tools but the company is just so shite.

In any case, I hope this video is helpful. I think if anyone is interested in elevating their photos, these basic editing techniques will help. And you don't have to shoot RAW or even use a fancy camera. This works with any image.

Didn't need a tripod at last night's Buccos game. Just a well-placed wall to brace my camera and a gap in the trees. Shot with the D600 and a 28-70mm f/2.8 lens.

Tagging @thefrogman to grade my work. No post-processing done, just exported with NX Studio.

DxOMark and DxO Labs Break Up, Now Separate Entities

One company becomes two: DxOMark and DxO Labs have split, and apparently it was months ago!

DxOMark and DxO Labs have split, and apparently it was months ago. It was just revealed, in a DxOMark email that was sent out to cover milestones for the company during 2017, that DxOMark was officially spun off from DxO Labs into its own company. This change actually happened back in September according to the email, but for whatever reason, the company/companies chose not to disclose this until…

Promises Kept - Nikon Studio Global Photo Walk 2023 #3 - Hong Kong

With that said, I hope to catch up, shoot out and simply get lost in the economy-stricken economy I once love. Nothing fancy, just a week of meeting friends and families while hoping to set foot there once again after four long years of absence.

Let’s see how it turns out as I bring you fresh imageries of the battled city of China. It may surprise all of us!

Stay tune for fresh images as DxO Photo Lab 6 just got loaded on my laptop...finally!

Should you worry about noise?

The answer is yes and no, read on to find out why.

I have started shooting images in manual mode with my camera’s iso set to ‘iso auto’.  Why am I doing this? Because, rather than being forced to choose between aperture priority mode or shutter priority mode, I get to choose both my aperture and shutter speed combo letting the camera set the iso for me.

Of course, it is still good to work on the principle that the lower the iso the better the quality of the image as there is less noise. However, if you have a pro-consumer camera or better and the right post-processing software, then you will be surprised at what you can achieve.

I wanted to test the capability of the sensor of my camera and DxO Prime noise reduction. Take a look at the three images below.

But before you do check out my exposure settings.

I am using my cameras highest iso setting.

JPEG

RAW file unprocessed

JPEG from RAW file DxO Labs

The first image is an out of the camera JPEG, processed in camera with standard settings, the second image is my unprocessed RAW file, take note of the noise in the RAW unprocessed file. The last image is my RAW file, processed in DxO labs and output as a JPEG.

Given the high iso and poor lighting conditions, the JPEG is an acceptable shot. The camera’s sensor and processor did a good job.

JPEG

But the image can be improved greatly by switching to shooting in RAW and post-processing the image. (I actually shot JPEG and RAW together).

The RAW file contains a lot of noise

RAW file unprocessed

The final image was processed using DxO’s prime noise reduction setting. I also boosted the saturation, vibrancy and applied local sharpening to the eyes.

JPEG from RAW file DxO Labs

Let’s compare the camera’s JPEG to the JPEG output from the RAW file using DxO Labs.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

As you can see, the difference between the in-camera JPEG and the JPEG output from the RAW file is quite a change.

I wanted to see if I could get more from the JPEG file, but after trying, I decided that the limitations of working with the JPEG,  in terms of post-processing, meant I could not improve much on the original file, so I did not post it here.

So, if you are only shooting JPEG and not RAW  and you have poor lighting conditions then you need to worry about or at least consider the effects of noise on your image. If you are shooting in RAW and have a good RAW processor then noise might be a lesser consideration.

Things I learnt from this exercise

 The limitations of my camera’s ability to produce good JPEGS in poor lighting conditions and where noise is an issue when shooting at high iso ratings.

The ability of my camera’s sensor to capture a good RAW file to work with.

The power of DxO Labs prime noise reduction technology.

 Not to be frightened of using high iso settings if it means I get my shot!

I always use DxO Labs as my main RAW processor and JPEG editor because of the science behind the software and its automatic corrections that can be applied to both JPEG and RAW files.

The three files together.

So why don’t you try shooting in manual mode with auto iso and see how you get on.

  Noise, Should you worry about it? Should you worry about noise? The answer is yes and no, read on to find out why.
