[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 388608, member: 24753"] Interesting stuff [MENTION=31330]J-see[/MENTION] Couple suggestions that may be useful. The exposure does affect the sharpness of an image, especially when making these type comparisons and when we are pushing the envelope of sharpness. Our eyes are still in this process, and colors and highlights and shadows affect what we can and cannot see. So, I would aim for near identical exposures. Instead of the PS matching/cropping method, crop the DX and then crop the FX to an equivalence size. Does not need to be identical cropped image as long as we see the same detail in the middle. Example: Crop the DX to 600 pixels wide (6000 * 0.1) and crop the FX to 394 pixels wide (6016 * 0.1 * 0.655). I'd use LRs cropping tool and change the crop until the size is where you want it. You can check the selected crop width by hovering over the thumbnail in the bin before clicking Done in the cropping tool. [/QUOTE]
