I received my new 50D today. There are some test images at my flickr account:

Just wondering if Highlight Tone Priority and High ISO Noise Redcution are applied to RAW images. The manual wasn't very clear to

address this.

<br>

<br>

Page 62, section on RAW

<b> <i> About High ISO speed noise reduction and RAW. </b>

Although High ISO speed noise reduction settings are applied to the recorded images, the images without noise reduction applied are used

during image playback (on the LCD monitor and on a TV screen) or direct printing, (Noise my appear in the images.) Confirm the noise

reduction effects or print noise-reduced images with Digital Photo Pro (provided software). </i>

There are tons of noise reduction filters you can buy. I only use it when I absolutely have to and at ISO3200 and ISO6400,

I need to. I use Noise Ninja. You'll find that even at high ISOs, if you get your exposure right in camera, you will get less

noise with a lower ISO and trying to lighten it in post. Also consider that noise can be fixed, blur cannot.

Laura, these shots that I posted were also night shots. I was shooting f/2.8 and between ISO3200 to ISO6400. The reason

why your shots were blurry is because your shutter speed wasn't fast enough. If you're shooting at night under stadium

lights, your lighting should be constant and consistent so shoot in manual mode. Shoot wide open and you want to achieve

a shutter speed of at the very least 1/400. Adjust your ISO to whatever you have to, to get a good exposure at that shutter

speed. It will probably be ISO3200 o ISO6400. Yes they will be noisy but that can be fixed with some noise reduction

software.

If the amount of light changes frequently, which it sounds like it does in your case, shoot in aperture priority. With the lens

you have, I would shoot wide open. Adjust your ISO as needed.

Thanks John. Which ones did you feel were oversharpened...or were they all?

Sorry, can anyone tell me how to upload multiple images in one post. Thanks.

W&M vs NSU

Another plug for NAPP. Best $100 you'll ever spend. I save much more than that on all the free shipping from B&H and discounts from other places from being a NAPP member.

I'm using OSX 10.5.4 and Firefox 2. I just cleared my cache and it works fine now. Thanks Josh.

There is an Admin Options button for each photo. What is this for. When I click on it, it does nothing. How do I

delete

a photo from my portfolio? Thanks.

There are a few ways: you can email the pic to an email address, connect the phone to computer via usb cable, or if your phone has a memory card, stick it in a card reader.

Paul, don't worry about picture styles. Shot RAW. Never shoot jpg unless you're running out of room on your memory card. There are a few things you have to do to get that "POP". Make sure you're shooting in the right light, use a circular polarizer, use a tripod, and did I mention shoot in RAW? Post processing has a lot to do with color saturation as well.

I'd also try to include something in the foreground to add depth.<div></div>

I'd also try to include something in the foreground to ad depth.

Here is a shot with the 1D Mark III at ISO800. No noise reduction, not even in RAW.<div></div>

Short answer: Yes. The 1D Mark III handles better in high ISO, but I would echo Bob's statement. You must have a

bad 5D because ISO800 looks great.

 

<br>

<br>

<i> "I have seen images of Nikon D3 at ISO 1600 and it looks as good as 5D's ISO 200." </i>

<br>

Hogwash. Let's get real. Yes, the D3 handles noise very well, but again, you must be dealing with a defective 5D.

Ilkka, you missed Jeff's point. 90% of pro photographers are not going to be in that situation.

Ergonomics will vary from hand to hand. I used my 5D in the wettest spot on Earth and did not have any issues. Again, it's taken Nikon almost 4 years to answer Canon's 5D.

SO... Nikon released a 12.1 megapixel full-frame camera without the massive body.

 

Canon already accomplished this 3 years ago- it's called the 5D. Yes, I suspect there are a plethora of "features"

that distinguish the D700 from the 5D, but my 5D does everything I need and then some, including great high-ISO

performance in near darkness. I am not wanting for any additional features.

 

This reminds me of the release of Windows 95. Amidst all the hype was the "joke" that it was already done in the

form of Mac '84...

 

What am I missing here? </i>

Amen to that. Canon still has the fastest DSLR in the industry and the highest MP DSLR on the market. Nikon is

finally catching up.

Certainly, there are a lot of other variables that will determine how well your print will come out, but I used to print 13X19 with my 20D (8.3MP) just fine and they looked great.

Levels has RGB channels as well. Think of Curves as a tool to change the histogram info. From left to right is shadows and highlights. Changing the curve will change the values of the histogram, thus changing the properties of the image. Curves can make changes to the tonality of an image, boosting or reducing contrast. In the color channels, in RGB mode, it can add or reduce a color cast. In Lab mode, it can saturate colors.
