After 2 years finally someone commented and it's me :D

I think, using adjustment layer with Luma Range is easier. Just select highlight range, then rasterize the mask, then use feather or refine or both, then exposure, structure, clarity to liking etc.

Thanks for your advice 😊

Creating a video of a product you have never used is a complete waste of your time and mine.

but every time you clicked again on the sky, to create a new mask, the feathering you did before that is then LOST. so it makes no sense to do this 3 times, if you keep doing it in the same layer. only the last click and last feathering have an effect. maybe you forgot to create new layers for each new click&feathering???

cool :)

very good and informative ,thx

Привет из России! Это здорово! Спасибо вам за то что поделились своей техникой! 🤝

30L? OR 35L????

Great way using tool in Capture One, easy to be acces! 10x for effort and sharing!

Hamed, Your showing and explaining how the histogram and levels control work together in the snow on the grass image. I never thought of the histogram as a way to determine color balance. I noticed that exact color balance does not have to be perfect when editing the mountain photo. I like the mountain on the left because the highlights were better controlled and the contrast was not too sharp on the rock edges ( crispy). I use Capture One and allow it to auto correct the levels, though other photo artists do not choose to do so. I am a people event photographer, mostly in a Church setting. On a feast day roses are in abundance and I use levels to reduce red saturation. Thank you. Father Dan

Good and informative thoughts on the Orton effect. Too bad you never switched on the exposure warning. I suspect the sky is burnt out +255. Avoid hasty movements with the cursor.

Thanks for the video! I'm comparing both. Tried the 450 AWii a couple years ago but ended up buying the PGYTECH OneMo v1... amazing bag for the price. Cost is the larger prohibitive factor though I think it is the best fit for my needs. Currently looking for a used one. If Shimoda put Molle on the back/sides of the bag it would be perfect... I also own the Tenba Axis v2. Great to have such great choices today!

Thanks!!! I’m new in C1 and I’m loooooving it!!

You can't compare pre-Biden prices to the new Bidenonmics prices. The new Lowepro bags are in the $400-500 range.

Nice presentation. I also very happy with the new Ai masks

useful, thank you

Very helpful, great tutorial.

Thank you a lot, that video make my day !!

While LR doesn't have a tool specifically called layers, that is effectively what the masks are. The only tool you can't use with LR masks is the colour grading tool - all the other RAW editing tools are in there. They even work the same was as C1 since any adjustments on a new layer in C1 are not visible until you apply a mask. In terms of levels, you can click and drag within the histogram in the Develop module of LR for similar results. You can also finesse LR masks using luminance or colour. And of course all of this can be saved as an adaptive preset and applied to other images without having to remake the mask every time, because it leverages the AI masking tool.

You can make a color selection in CaptureOne and use that selection as a mask

Ótimo vídeo! Obrigado por compartilhar o seu conhecimento. Já me inscrevi no seu canal!😉 Estou ansioso para mais dicas sobre o C1.

Great concept. I use cap 1 and would like to see more vids on how you use it.

Thank you for the trick! I‘ve been curious if i can achieve the same effect without having to export the picture separately to photoshop again

Love it!!!! Look forward to your video!!

Please remember to comment here if you want a chance to win the giveaway 😊

"Ignore my second I" :D ... that was funny

I would like to see a video on your thoughts of the XT-5 as opposed to the XT-4 after you have used it for a while. Thanks for sharing

Giveaway to me

Great tips. Thank you!

Great video; I was unaware of the mask feathering tool. Definitely going to use this one more. Did you end up making the video on recovering highlights in Capture One?

I enjoyed this video.

I was excited to try the diffraction correction, but noticed some halos that it created. That was a disappointment.

Great content , liked and subscribed .

Great thoughts and guidance Hamed. Thankyou

I think each Shimoda Explorer bags has its own competiters. For Shimoda E25 which is a light bag, there are a lot of good alternatives to be chosen from market. Myself I used to carry Lowepro flipside 400 when I want to go light. However in terms of comfort when I want to go heavy, there is no other bag that I have tried better than Shimoda E35 which is a heavy bag. Although E35 looks heavy, I did not feel uncomfortable when it's fully loaded. Thank to its adjustable carry system. My recommendation is to keep two bags for different purposes, depending on how much you want to load with. Therefore among heavy bags E35 probably the best while E25 might be mediocre among other good light bags.

Great vid! Was cleaning spots in C1 and saw a vid where the levels were moved to make the spots easier to see. Doing so, I noticed some nice changes in the photo and thought, "maybe there is a technique for editing just by levels." Your vid was spot on (sorry for the pun)!

Beautiful shots!

Amazing video. Combination of your calm voice, beautiful nature and relaxing music while showing gorgeous shots immersed me completely, and 17 minutes flew by unnoticed. Nice to see someone at process of creating an art. Listening to ideas that come in the moment of photography.

Thank you! Very useful info 😊

Awesome video

I just watched "7 tips to improve your landscape photos (make photos instead of snapshots)" by Hamed Bank, and I have to say that I was really impressed! The video was well-produced and engaging, and the tips that Hamed shared were both practical and insightful. One of the things that really stood out to me was Hamed's emphasis on the importance of planning and preparation when it comes to landscape photography. From scouting locations to researching weather and lighting conditions, it's clear that Hamed takes his craft seriously and is willing to put in the work to get the shot he wants. I also appreciated the way that Hamed broke down each of his tips into clear, actionable steps that viewers could follow along with. Whether he was discussing the importance of foreground interest or the use of leading lines, he provided concrete examples and demonstrations that made it easy to understand what he was talking about. Overall, I would highly recommend "7 tips to improve your landscape photos (make photos instead of snapshots)" to anyone who is interested in improving their photography skills. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced photographer, there's something here for everyone, and Hamed's passion and expertise shine through in every frame.

Good tip to keep you photos simple. Thank you

These are really great tips, thank you. Looks lovely up there, with all the pine trees and lakes. We don't really have that here in Denmark. We do, however, have a lot of rapeseed plants that have just begun flowering, so the whole country is turning yellow! I will definitely use these tips when trying to photograph that.

Such an interesting video Hamed! Really useful :)

Agree. Levels is very powerful and simple enough to not get carried away with unnecessary adjustments. The comparison with the same image done with other adjustments showed the great results you can achieve in a relatively short amount of post-processing. Many thanks for a great video.

Hi, why i don't have 'layers' in my 'Tools'?

An excellent comparison of these two camera backpacks...thank you! I'm considering the smaller Shimoda Explorer V2 30 L for 2 mirrorless bodies and 3 or 4 lenses (2 mounted on the bodies). And also considering the LowePro ProTactic 250 AW, but not sure if they'll work for my smaller configuration. Thanks again.

CaptureOne has one massive advantage over Lightroom: Luma curve. For Levels, I think Lr has the equivalent functionality with direct white point / black point setting…..

Great edit 😀
