[QUOTE="blackstar, post: 801495, member: 47518"] I was out in the yard trying to test z6ii + sigma + gimbal tripod again. It's still cast in no good light. Saw some small birds and made some shots. It turned out all subjects, bird, and tree, are backlit and become like silhouettes. Somehow before riding all the images when viewing them in gimp, hit a tool called "color tone curve". Played a bit with it on some images and was surprised by its wonder of bringing images back to life! It's not perfect, especially in this case it introduces a lot of noise, as shot in good light. But still amazing to be able to salvage a bit. Some examples: (before and after) [ATTACH type="full"]387241[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]387242[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]387243[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]387244[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]387245[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]387246[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
