I shoot jpegs in camera. I have several settings for colour and mono. With mono I have 2 settings on custom functions dial (C1 and C2) that i can select quickly. C1 (this pic) is my favourite. Harsh and grainy, high auto-ISO with increased contrast. A 'Theriaultian' setting, if you will. My default black and white setting. 4000X2664 (3:2) pixels. Into PS and I just give it a levels hit but it never adjusts much, and often I will leave it as is. I didn't crop this one at all, which is slightly unusual for me as the optical VF of the camera only covers about 85% and I find myself cropping in a bit to match what I saw. I try and compensate when shooting but it never quite works. I sometimes shoot with the LCD but only when I can't get my eye to the finder, or it's a low or high level shot (viewing angle on the LCD is sensational). For web I pop it down to 1000 or 1200 pixels across and apply a tad of sharpening. It reminds me so much of Ilford HP5. I'm really just carrying on where I left off 25 years ago! Thanks for looking. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) | Web Video Production ---------- <www.seeingeye.tv> _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
