Easy to over shoot sharpness and get pixelation in the lock, or contrast/ de-noise and lose the contrast in the padlock’s brushing. Don’t forget to crop the lens hood out, the compact camera’s profile doesn’t compensate for the widest angle and closest focus. And the image is wonky
I’m trying to use some sharpening with the Contrast Equalizer module. My eyes are bad (neurological disease), so I can’t tell much difference. Maybe you can.
Sharpening and noise control seem absolutely fine, do your eyes work by comparison, as I’d say it was a bit dark (and I tend towards the dark side), @sovereign’s post is better than mine on the black hasp thingy but maybe too light on the shed’s wood. Hope that helps.
I got a surprise on export, it looked much crispier. The RT fit to screen is of course blurry, and the 100% view I used to sharpen was so big on my little laptop screen it was hard to tell how the final export would look. Not unhappy how it turned out, I like the texture, but is there any way to make the fit to screen view less blurry? I’m aware there is probably a performance cost…
