Hey, my apologies, I am not near a computer. Are you doing this on a computer?

Until I can get back with you, be sure to downsize your images to less than 2MP and the longest size no larger than the max allowed (2500px???).

From there, I will need to follow along on the computer.

Check in with you later.:)

I have found the d3300 to be quite an interesting camera when one takes into account the very low price, light-weight and sheer 'useability' factor.......if you frame it and press you are going to get something thats sharp, reasonably well exposed (little over for me) and very quickly done. it even does night shots to an amazing level,.......carols around the war memorial, this pic made it into the choirs website, again completely unedited ....

Yay!!! Looking good on the posts. :)

Is that an annual Austin Club meet/show? Lovely images of those examples of such a classic British car!:thumbup:

Actually it's just a county (Essex) club for Austin seven models only.....and yes it's a yearly happening, at the Countess of Warrick's country show in the village of Little Easton.

In the meantime, glorious rain has blessed us with its presence the past few days. Now the plants, grass and flowers have a content lushness about themselves that we have not seen in months.

Ah... back to this previous post,

I managed to find some images from the same leisure-shoot with the D850 that are much closer to what I was hoping for. Busy day ahead so I hope to re-visit those images today and re-post this evening.

The D850 is highly-capable and if I can finesse the settings to my style of shooting and processing, I will be quite happy. The journey continues... Stay tuned!:)

I probably missed it, but what software are you using for PP?

That D700 does a great job. Sharp but soft where it is best and great colors!:thumbup:

This photo was processed entirely in Capture NX-D, starting from the current Neutral Picture Control. Normally I would export to 16bit tiff and use LR6 for the finishing touches and the resize to posting, but macOS started warning me that LR6 will not work in the next version, so I am trying to figure out how to use Capture NX-D for everything. But I can definitely see how this approach will not work for most....

When it comes to NEF conversion, I prefer Capture NX-D to any other software.

But for some other PP operations, Lightroom offers an easier way. For example, when saving for the web, Lightroom has one dialog which allows me to convert color space, resize the photo and do output sharpening in one step, using a simple and intuitive UI. Capture NX-D does not have that - instead you have to know what/how to do using basic operations. Right now I am trying to figure out what values to select for the standard sharpening tool (intensity, radius, threshold) to get the same results as selecting Standard sharpening for Screen in the Lightroom output dialog. I've been using that Lightroom dialog for so many years I forgot how to do it manually...
