The Very Latest & Greatest Fun w/Digital M Images

Ashwin... how's the Macbook Air handling Lightroom? I've been tempted to pick one up, although I use Aperture.

Hi Jason. Thanks so much for the kind words. I think the sharpness is due to a bit of processing and a lot of lens sharpness. I do use "Direct Positive" and "Old Polar" filters for some of the shots, which includes a clarity adjustment that may effectively sharpen the image a bit.

And the MacBook Air is sweet. It handles LR3 and PS CS5 very well, even doing a reasonable job with Nik Color/Silver Efex to boot. I have been pleasantly suprised. I have a MBA with 4 GB or RAM (11 inch model), by the way, and like the size/performance ratio, though I suspect the 13 inch version's screen may be better for editing (at the cost of increased size)

Thanks again!

That is great to know! I'd really like to 11" to hack thru quick imports and edits on the road.
