Another Tiger!

[Sanjeev Aurangabadkar]

Hi All,
Here is another one from Tipeshwar with some improvisation in my sharpening thanks to Jon and Steve.
1DX II
700mm
1/2000
f/6.3
ISO 1600

Hi Sanjeev, until you update camera settings ALL images taken so far will be crunchy sadly, but at least we know the issues.

Take some shots ASAP with the camera settings changed and forward a Raw back again.

Cheers
Steve

Dear Sanjeev,

I understand you might have had some issues with camera settings - I am sorry if this is the case, but glad it can be sorted. Just wanted to say I quite like the framing here and walking pose as well as eye contact. Perhaps a curve adjustment for more "pop" if you're inclined to spend more time on this image.

Many thanks for sharing Sanjeev,

Kind regards,

Hi Sanjeev always great to have a tiger sighting .....i am a little envious about your options , but can live with it .
The approach is nice but the pose is a bit awkward for my liking with the lifted back paw , wish one front leg was up in the air instead .
Colors looking quite nice and you handled the side light very good , just think the contrast is a bit heavy and the sharpening is not ideal , i think !!
What are your issues with the sharpening and why are your camera settings off ...?

Struggling with the converter ? What are you using ?

What are your issues with the sharpening and why are your camera settings off ...?

A small issue with the Camera settings Andreas, now all resolved.

[Andreas Liedmann]

Ok .... wonder what a small issue causes ..."big" problems for the sharpening ...

[Sanjeev Aurangabadkar]

Hi Andreas, sorry for delay in replying. I got a 1DX II and had not changed the colour space to Adobe RGB (as suggested by Steve) and some issues with sharpening as images were turning out a bit crunchy. No issue with converter. A bit of heat haze maybe.

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi Sanjeev ..... just wondering why the colour space would affect the image ....... changeable in post , should have no effect on the file . I am jumping also from Adobe RGB to Prophoto RGB ....
With the converter ... i talked about the RAW converter not the TC ....

Cheers Andreas

I am using DPP in initial stage, then move file to PS CC 2019. I use sharpness of 3 in DPP. in PS I use USM 30%, radius 0.3 1 to 3 rounds after re sizing. What do you think Andreas?

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi Sanjeev ... not the settings i use with DPP and web sharpening ....still wonder why the image appear crunchy there must be more involved IMHO !

Wondering what sliders you used in DPP ...? AS image appears flat in the mid tone and 1/4 tone range ( greyish ) .... i might be wrong but looks like you have used the HL recovery and other sliders , which profile have you used ?
