[QUOTE="J-see, post: 469262, member: 31330"] Some more about wavelets. What I find giving the best result is applying contrast and chromaticity wavelets at strength 30 to the full NEF together with RL deconvolution sharpening and then converting the shot to the output format (1024*whatever for here). To that output format I apply the wavelet sharpening usually at strength 25. The result is phenomenal when it comes to pulling detail and sharpening and it doesn't suffer any of the artifacts or halos you get when applying unsharp mask sharpening. Also; applying the igv demosaicer delivers better quality than the rest of the options. It does make a difference which demosaicer you use. I've always been impressed by what RT brings to the table and allows me to do but since I can use wavelets this editor simply has no competition. It's free; try it. It's a better investment than new glass. If anyone is curious if RT is worth the effort of learning you can always process your shot to the max in your editor of choice, show it here and upload the NEF. I don't mind processing it in RT and show that result so you can decide if it makes enough difference and is worth the bother. [/QUOTE]
