If you open a levels adjustment layer in Photoshop you get this... That's very typical of a shot like this because fog/haze compresses the light so you have no extreme highlights or shadows. What I will always do is drag the highlight side over to the edge of the histogram... ...which has...

They both exist and one can interfere with your ability to enhance the other if you treat the image globally.

So I picked up a Z6ii as my full frame camera after selling my D750 to sort of push me to a "have to buy" position, and was looking forward to it being my walkaround camera, figuring that my D500's would stick around as my wildlife bodies. In researching settings and focus modes I came across a...

I've hunted through Adobe forums and have seen this problem reported multiple times but I've yet to find a solution. I just got a Z6ii and did a bunch of test shots with it and imported them into Lightroom and they look great. But when I go to edit them in Photoshop the White Balance has a huge...

Never mind. I read the manual, but I didn't look at the diagrams. I asked a friend with a Z7 and she didn't know, so I don't feel as stupid as I would have had I asked my friend with the Z6 first. But if you're wondering...

I know the rear screen will turn off when you raise your eye to the viewfinder, but on my Sony a6000 I can set a function button so that the rear screen display turns completely off when I press it and will come back on when pressed again. On the Z6ii you can set a button to turn off the display...

Looks like Nikon finally got this. https://nikonrumors.com/2021/02/18/hands-on-video-with-the-upcoming-nikon-z6-ii-z7-ii-firmware-update-version-1-10.aspx/ Anyone hear when the Z6ii bodies are supposed to start shipping? I'm jonesing.

I just love that you can take a shot like this at 8mm (12mm) and not have to fix pincushion distortion (this is straight out of camera).

When I click on the What's New or New Post links at the top of the page I just get the Advanced Search screen and not the new posts as I did previously.

And for the curious, here are a couple...

This is a pretty good article explaining what they are. How many you get and where they are located varies by camera body. Essentially they are faster and more accurate points. This is what you have with the D500 (cross-type in red)...

Anyone know if Highlight Display (zebra stripes) are available in still mode on any of the mirrorless cameras, or their 'ii' alternatives? Seems like this would be a nice-to-have in the EVF when shooting stills and not just for video.

To be clear, the two images are not precisely the same and were you to see them side by side the similarities would be blatantly obvious but you would never confuse one for the other. This is where I would disqualify calling it a "forgery". The copy borrows the concept, color scheme and key...

@hark I think you misunderstood. This isn't about me, I was just copping to being guilty of committing the the "transgression" in question. It's truly about a friend who is the outside party in the scenario above - the person who knows that an image submitted in a contest is an almost...

Thank you. Yes it was. These are some of the photos that are not... LOL

I'm guessing more than a few of us participate in various photography sites and clubs where there are "contests", most of which provide little other than self-satisfaction to the winners. Say someone is a member of an online site where these contests take place and they see an image that they...

I guess it depends which backyard you hang out in. LOL But yeah, this one was serendipitous - the Chickadee just flew in and veered left when the squirrel jumped.
