jnd, Um not really, starting with a jpeg those adjustments are much much more constrained than if you can start with a raw. iPhones shoot to jpeg, not really good jpegs either unlike the Fuji XT1. Nor do iPhones shoot directly to tiff, but wait only a few Nikons do that. So no, raw shooting, combined with good raw extraction software, is how to have much better control of the following: noise, WB, exposure, tint, optical compensation.

Users of the new Leica Monochrom (typ 246) risk wiping out their Apple Photos library if they try to use it to store the DNG Raw files created by the camera. This comes from a statement published by Red Dot Forum, a website operated by folks who run the Miami Leica store. Mac computer owners running OS X Yosemite will find the files cause the library to crash, which Leica says could lead to all images saved in the library being destroyed. Leica says it is working with Apple to resolve the issue, and expects the fix to...
read morePhotographer Reshoots Some of the Oldest Surviving Photos of New York
For the past two years, photographer Jordan Liles has been researching the life and work of George Bradford Brainerd, a lesser-known 19th-century photographer who shot 2,500 photos of New York before he died in 1887 at the age of 42. Starting in 2013, Liles has also been visiting the locations of Brainerd’s photos — some of the oldest surviving images of New York — recreating the shots to show how New York has changed over the past 140 years. Liles has so far recreated 28 Brainerd photos that were made between 1872 and 1887....

If you’re ever asked for permission to use a photo, be sure you know the scope of what you’re agreeing to before saying yes. Photographer Nikki MayDay Guardascione tells us that she got quite a surprise yesterday when a seemingly-simple photo request from Miller Lite turned out to be for much more usage than she originally thought. Guardascione, a wedding photographer who previously worked as a photographer and photo editor for AOL and NBC News, had shared a bridal party photo of groomsmen drinking Miller Lite through her Facebook...

The software makes creating a hyperlapse as easy as recording video and inputting it into a program. Microsoft’s special computer vision technology will help smooth out your bumpy footage, speed past the “long boring parts,†and spit out a...

#1 An Ever-Changing Subject Nature photography never gets boring. Whether it be wildlife or landscape photography you are interested in, there is always a new angle you can introduce to your photos. For landscape photography, the weather is never exactly the same – clouds make unique formations, and the way sun rays cast over the scene in front of you are always very special. If you take photos of wildlife, then you will be forever capturing moments that will never be repeated. Take the example of two birds fighting on a branch: you will...

Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
