    The Leica Picture Thread

    Looks like the (Japanese) garden at Hatley Park, by Royal Roads.

    Any Hasselblad users just use Phocus and nothing else?

    1. The Export tool in Phocus has some jpeg presets (at least my copy of Phocus v3.8 does) and it allows you to create your own presets, with some control over the parameters. 2. In Phocus, on the Adjust panel, there is Grayscale tool: click to turn it on, and there are Red, Green, and Blue...

    Thank you. I didn't know that changing the feeder would make a difference.

    Printing on Epson SC P800 Setting Paper

    For my Epson P600, on a Mac, under Media Type (= Medium on your screen shot), there is an option 'Fine Art Paper', which then has several sub-options, including 'Watercolor Paper - Radiant White'. On my computer, at the moment, that option, and others e.g. Velvet Fine Art Paper, are greyed...

    Good free photo editing programs

    Agreed, re: Phocus. I believe that it uses Apple system routines to open non-Hasselblad raw files, so some 'raw' tools, e.g. Recovery, Shadow Fill, Clarity, Lens Corrections, colour profiles, are greyed out, i.e. not available. Other tools: EV, Contrast, Brightness, White Balance, Sharpness...

    Hasselblad Phocus and file creation date in exports

    I am on a Mac, running Monterey (macOS 12.6.7), and Phocus 3.7.3 (updated just now). I imported a raw (.3FR) file to Phocus (which converted it to .fff), made some adjustments, and exported it as a tiff. In the macOS Finder, for the .tif file, it shows the (file) created and modified dates as...

    Architecture, Buildings, and Structures

    This reminded me of some other arches. April 5, 2017. Leica T, Vario-Elmar 18-56 mm, at 56 mm, f 5.6, 1/160 sec., ISO 250. Under the aqueduct near Nanzen-ji, Kyoto.

    Nikkor Z 85mm f/1.8 S Photos and Discussions

    I prefer the version you posted. When it is flipped horizontally, to me it feels as if the tree is falling down to the right, unpleasantly. The tree and its shape are not quite vertical, visually, but it is interesting that it looks/feels differently depending upon the direction. Thank you for...

    Architecture, Buildings, and Structures

    Looks kind of like San Giorgio Maggiore, to me, being on the (East) end of Giudecca, so you can get that kind of view. Further back(West) along Giudecca is Il Redontore, by the vaporetto stop of the same name, which has a similar facade fronting the canal. I am not familiar with the Monastero...

    Solved: A lens that will AF on the X1D but won't on the X2D

    There is firmware 0.6.0 for the lens. My copy is dated October 29, 2020. It is somewhat difficult to find on the Hasselblad website. It doesn't seem to show under firmware, but rather under 'My Hasselblad', then Downloads. It has been a while, but I think that you put the downloaded file (~.cim)...

    X2D + new lenses: first impressions

    The GPS in my (Apple) cellphone works fine when there is no cell connection. I am usually out of cell range when I am hiking in the Rockies near me, and with the Gaia app, and pre-loaded maps, I can see my location on a contour map at any time.

    Fun with the Fuji X ___!

    Carl In this picture of the purple martin, I see patches with a very weird patterned noise, above the bird and slightly right, and below the bird and slightly left. Were you aware of them? Are they an artifact from some part of your processing? Something on your lens? I don't see them in your...

    Fun with the Hasselblad 907x

    Assuming that it is the same as an X1D, if you open it in Phocus, the crop is honoured, but the file has the full sensor image. This allows you to adjust the crop during post-processing. I presume that the crop is written in the file metadata, which Phocus recognizes, but other software doesn't.
