Not lacking detail! Very nice. True enough. But Lightroom has a really nice tool for opening shadows that could have been used to great advantage in that photo. -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm |

Just out of curiosity: My monitor is nothing spectacular, but I don't normally use it for critical photo viewing- that's where my darkroom comes in. I see very little difference between the two images. The smaller image seems to have more contrast, especially in the whiskers of "madonna". What would I notice between the images with a better monitor? -- Ken Hart |

The only difference you should have seen would have been size. SmugMug gives you several options when sharing from downright silly, microscopically small, to original. I don’t believe they make any other changes with their resizing algorithm. You should be able to see some difference with this rendition processed as part of my experiment with the Capture One 12 Pro trial. https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-RFvFPHM/0/8460e6ca/5K/i-RFvFPHM-5K.jpg What would I notice between the images with a better monitor? That depends. What display/monitor do you currently use, and how does it compare with a 5K retina display? -- Regards, Savageduck |

Given the season I thought the title was somewhat appropriate. I was expecting a photo of Sean Penn's ex-wife! Just out of curiosity: My monitor is nothing spectacular, but I don't normally use it for critical photo viewing- that's where my darkroom comes in. I see very little difference between the two images. The smaller image seems to have more contrast, especially in the whiskers of "madonna". The only difference you should have seen would have been size. SmugMug gives you several options when sharing from downright silly, microscopically small, to original. I don’t believe they make any other changes with their resizing algorithm. In my case, all the images came up as nearly filling the browser (Firefox) window. The title bar showed the scaling; for the images above, 86% and 26% respectively. There were no SmugMug options or text shown. You should be able to see some difference with this rendition processed as part of my experiment with the Capture One 12 Pro trial. https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-RFvFPHM/0/8460e6ca/5K/i-RFvFPHM-5K.jpg Comparing this image with "larger look" above: "Larger look" is more color saturated and maybe a half-stop or more denser than "Capture One". The increased color saturation may just be the result of the density. Side by side, I prefer "larger look", but then I print dense and use high contrast papers. Both images displayed full-frame; the subject slightly closer in "larger look". What would I notice between the images with a better monitor? That depends. What display/monitor do you currently use, and how does it compare with a 5K retina display? My computers are not photography tools as yours' obviously are. My desktop monitors are Dell 1909W. I have absolutely no idea how it would compare to a 5K retina display. But you would certainly know (based on the quality of your work that I've seen), and could probably explain without being _too_ condescending. -- Ken Hart |

But you would certainly know (based on the quality of your work that I've seen), and could probably explain without being _too_ condescending. There are several things which make your Dell 1909W more suitable for desktop computing work than digital photography processing though they should do in a pinch. To start with your Dell is a 19” monitor vs some of the larger displays currently available. My 5K Retina is a 27” which gives me plenty of screen real estate. to work on. When it comes to resolution your Dell is 1440 x 900 compared to my 5K Retina at 5120 x 2880. All I can say is the image quality, and resolution on a 5K display/monitor is quite remarkable, and should be seen to be appreciated. For my digital image processing making the upgrade was one of the best things I could have done for my eyes. All of that said, It has been years since I last used a wet darkroom, and if you ever decide to add digital to your film world with a wet darkroom I highly recommend looking into a monitor/display upgrade. You might be pleasantly surprised, I certainly was. -- Regards, Savageduck |

You might be pleasantly surprised, I certainly was. Thank you - educational and not at all condescending! Based on monitor size alone, the difference is akin to a 35mm negative compared to a 6x7cm negative. Based on resolution alone, the difference is akin to printing those same negs to the same size print. I enjoy my time spent in the darkroom. I doubt that I will put too much money into my monitor just for the sake of my Vivitar ViviCam 7022, $40 at Staples several years ago. It does fine for eBay! -- Ken Hart |
