Thanks for sharing your beautiful pictures from places most of us will most likely never visit.

 

I once looked at them from close up:

I just found out I haven't got a clue what I am doing when preparing smaller versions of images for the forum: an image that looks nicely saturated and pleasantly crisp/sharp on my 4K monitor looks quite bleak and rather soft when I just checked it on my wife's laptop which has a 1920x1080 monitor.

Thanks very much, George!  I often find that images do not look as good on laptop screens as they do on desktop monitors.  That is certainly the case with my desktop Eizo 22" ColorEdge compared with an Asus 22" monitor on another machine, let alone a laptop.

 

Here's another lichen photograph from the same hike as the other two.

Thanks to you sir, you share your images very generously and for a good cause, too. Makes me wonder if you are outdoors 24/7.

Do you just resize when you make the smaller version or do you use different sharpening or make other changes  ?

 

My lichens are from the High Tatra mountains, this one is from 2634m altitude.

Beautiful photograph, George!  Mine are from about 2200 meters altitude.

 

My post-processed uploaded images are all at 2560 pixels on the longest side, and 300 dpi.  I often add a bit of additional contrast, and sometimes a tad more saturation, but that is all.  No sharpening, and almost all of the images are uncropped.

 

The forum software creates the smaller sizes (and probably lower dpi) that are displayed, but if you click on them you will get to the originals.

 

Generally I go on two hikes weekly, most of them near my home.  It looks like you live near some amazing mountains!

      X-s10 with Fujinon 16mm 1.4 autofocus issue

      By Etienne B · Posted

      Hello. I have a x-s10 that I use multiple lenses with. Yesterday I noticed that with the Fujinon 16mm lens I'm having issues auto-focusing. It works on video but not for still images. When I half press the button it focuses a bit then when I release the button it snaps back to the previous focus point. Even though it manages to focus the image is still blurry. Any ideas please. I already did a a major google search and nobody has mentioned this issue. Thanks, Etienne

      X-s10 Fast shutting 20/30 fps crop ES

      By mapoett · Posted

      Hello. Thankyou,now Is all more clear: I have take some time in your link. Let tell you. I has totaly forget this machine have "compress picture option" and not Only "compress lossless" anyway not change the experiment. RAW  and this last two format look like same result about Number of recording picture. Can tell all results in this: in raw you can make 17 pictures for second. Is wrong. Is about One single Press and wait buffer. Full 30/20/10/8 not change. After 17 Need Press again. You not can Press before "redgreen light recording Is on".   With preshot you can have 25  are more 7 pictures . The story change Only in jpg shot only. In jpg at 30 you have 30 picture but redgreen light off very Fast so you can shot very quicly. At 20 shot Is about start look like infinite shot. 60. So the best performance are this last One  about Speed and recording picture after camera working witout big limit. I want take a shot about Italy cyclet Just for passion. I think i Will use this last setting.  After Need check when battery not are full change and ambient temp.  Anyway my cam look like exactly specific about you link. Im Happy my cam working perfectly.
