A7RII and moire issues. Help needed!

[markymarkrb]

A7RII owners/users,


I just returned from a trip to Spain. I was photographing the Alhambra and got 2 photographs that I am quite proud of. To my dismay, I found a section of the photograph that is suffering from some serious moire issues. I went back to each of my photographs and it didn't matter the ISO, shutter speed, etc. the camera was definitely defeated by the tile pattern on a distant part of the building. I was shooting with a Zeiss Otus 85mm lens. Photoshop/Lightroom and Capture One all with my limited skills came up short on fixing it. The photos are stitched and are quite large but I am looking for someone who has better skills than myself to fix my masterpieces (haha). Please let me know if you are willing to help and I will send you the files via Retransfer.com. Thanks in advance for your help.

This is what you get when a lens outperform the sensor by a large margin. I think you should try to use the moire tool in Lightroom. It is not rocket science. Speaking of hard case of moire ... is it as strong as in my example ?

Not an A7Rii but a NEX6 (which has about the same pixel pitch)

Uncorrected:


Applying the Lightroom Moire brush at 100%:


Works pretty well, only to make the change it takes the computer ~35 seconds to render the moire-free picture, so at first it looked like nothing was happening applying the brush. YMMV.
