Thanks for uploading this and explaining...It's a little difficult to follow but seems to mirror how I now edit, also with a Z6ii and a Z8 with a 4k laptop. I zoom in much more to view the levels of noise in the shadows to see how much NR is needed... I find your videos very useful and you instruction great. Especially your video setting, that's my greatest weakness..Cheers, Robert.
Thank Robert, yes this one hurt my brain a bit to make lol, hopefully not too confusing. I need to get out in the field for the next few videos. We will be taking a look at the n-raw video coming up. Cheers
I understand all this and don't have a problem with what you're presenting but I think its a complicated issue not unlike folks believing they have more reach with a crop sensor camera. When you cross the line into the abstract world of digital pixels, people can't really imagine what's going on behind the scenes. I think there needs to be some sort of index like display H lines/image H lines that results in a percentage that the image has to be scaled to be displayed on the viewing device - regardless of the screen size. Taking a 8191x5463 image from an R5 it has to be scaled down to 39% of original size for a 4k monitor, 26% for a 1440 monitor, and 19% on a 1080 monitor. So, 19% of what? Where do the other 81% of the pixels go? They don't get smaller, they get averaged or lost depending on the scaling method. I think this might help folks better visualize what is going on when they look at images on display. Then the opposite is happening when you view the image at 1:1 on the respective displays which gives them a more pixelated appearance, hence noisier, less sharp, etc... Its a complicated topic for sure and cudos to you for wading into it.
Yes some great points, It could be implemented into the editing software (Lightroom) etc where it has a view based on your sensor, monitor resolution and size so that no matter what you are viewing it on you are getting the same view.
Comong back from vacation, images don't look half as good as yours of course we just got the Z8 and dont have your skill level we also shoot with a200-500
Yeah the Z8 has definitely got a steep learning curve, it's a camera you need to use a lot to get the most out of it, almost has too many options. I have been shooting a ton of video this season and going between photos and videos sometimes catches me out. Where did you get to. My spring trip has been postponed this year unfortunately so we will see if I can get away in the summer
@@raincoastphoto Hi Stuard, We went to Riviera Maya Mexico, short vacation. My girl friend is a nurse and she needs the king of quitness this place provides. Bird photography. Lucky we got out on the balcony and lucky enough there was a couple of Pigmy-Owl right there in a hole in the balcony post. Thank you again fer everything you do.
Love listening to your videos
Many thanks. Very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Stuard, I got same monitor and Z8 too
