Hi folks ...just posting this for the sport of it .
It is basically about editing within Canon DPP software and its limitations ...... but in the end i think the output is not too bad , WDYT ?
Even this is a tricky file to deal with .... as it was shot very high ISO and the contrast , both in tone and color is quite strong from my POV . So i was in the end surprised to create such clean file within just DPP , no further edits in PS .
For sure i think the file could be improved within PS .......no question . It took me some time to deal with it in DPP to get it to the posted stage ....
So Stuart ....it works to work exclusively within DPP .... just take your time and push the sharpening .....i was surprised how far i could go without creating visible artifacts on the downsized file .
