    A7rII less than ideal for long exposures?

    Guys, I just read this at SAR: "the main issue is the long exposure color noise in the shadows which starts to appear at shutter speeds greater than 1 second, really become a problem beyond 10 seconds, and is like an unwelcome dose of LSD beyond 30 seconds." Link: sonyalpharumors This is...

    Best SW for sharpening less than ideal lens?

    Hello guys, I bought a Sony E 55-210 OSS zoom lens for its low price and small size. However, I am very disappointed at the results despite I was aware of its "almost" mediocre IQ. Just perhaps I particularly got a bad copy. Since I've been planning to purchase a sharpening software for a while...

    Exhibition paper for 7880 with least gloss diferential?

    Hello guys. I'm about to go back on serious printing after a 3 year hiatus with my now old but beloved Epson 7880. For my last exhibit I ended up printing finals on Harman FbAl. I decided on this paper over the rest including Ilford Fibre Gold because it gave the least gloss diferential. But not...

    Photographers splitting their brains

    All over the place, I read about photographers splitting their brains in half trying to figure it out if spending years of savings to buy a MFDB is worth it. The dilemma is if spending that kind of the money is, not if the IQ is superior to digital 35. I believe that no digital 35 will ever...

    Digital photography came the other way around

    Photography was more fun 30 years ago. The pursuit of quality had many different alternatives and each one had a different result. When digital photography was in its beginnings I was very excited about all the different possibilities. Instead manufacturers decided to grab one film camera in...

    Back in September 2009, I asked for help to locate a used Epson 7600 mainboard. Somebody kindly pointed me to an auction on eBay. Since I never bidded on eBay, I was nervous to do it. I won the auction and paid for the item via paypal. The mainboard arrived but it was the wrong kind. I got in...

    Canon medium format

    It is possible to use the new TS lenses with their huge image circles with a hypotethical rangefinder medium format camera. See this image right from CanonUsa. I just added a 33X44 frame in blue and a 36X48 in green. Just idle tonight. Eduardo
