I remember.
InspirationI remember sitting in a tree once during the summer. The dog wore a blue collar as the visitors were making their way off of the tall ship.
I remember the breeze slipping into my bedroom through the window.
I remember awakening.

I have experimented photographing from this vantage at De Mello several times in the past, but this image probably represents one of my favourite attempts.

Lightroom 6 now supports the Nikon D850.
Inspiration, Q&A, Teaching pointApparently, Lightroom 6 (the standalone, non-subscription version) was updated today to support Nikon D850 RAW files.
I haven’t checked it out yet [Update: I have now verified that it works].
This will likely be one of the last updates (if not the last) before support is discontinued in the new year in favour of the subscription version(s).

Nik plugins reborn with DxO.

See link here.
It’s the resurrection of Nik’s famous “U-Point” technology (which I used extensively in Capture NX2 to process all my photos… before Nikon foolishly stopped supporting it) that intrigues me the most.

Nikon D850 JPG engine is really good.
Inspiration, Nikon D850, Q&A, Teaching pointAfter examining the RAW files from the Nikon D850 in Capture One and comparing them to the camera-generated JPGs I’ve come to a a surprising conclusion: this may be the first camera I choose to shoot exclusively in JPG mode.
The out of camera JPGs are that good.
–
My JPG settings for the D850 are:
- Picture Control: Neutral
- Active D-Lighting: Auto
- White Balance: Auto-0
- Vignette Control: Normal
- Auto Distortion Control: On
- High ISO noise reduction: Off
–
With these settings, I can get to within 95% of where I want the files to be, right out of the camera. This is an incredible time-saver.
[Update October 26, 2017: I downloaded the latest version of Lightroom and have to admit that the RAW files, as handled by Lightroom, are very pleasing and superior to the out-of-camera JPGs.]

Capture One 10 Pro.
Inspiration, Q&ADo any of you have experience with Capture One 10 Pro?
I’m eager to start processing RAW files off the D850 and since Lightroom hasn’t been updated yet I was wondering if this was the perfect excuse to say goodbye to Adobe (so far, I’ve resisted their subscription model).
Any insights would be appreciated.
Thanks,
—Peter.
