I've started to play around with the raw files and have processed them on both CaptureOne v.8.3 and Iridient Developer. I've left the studio for the weekend (plumbing and auto repair chores this weekend) but on initial inspection, I'm not seeing either the halos or the jaggies in either of these two applications, even after applying sharpening in Ps. Even though Dan is correct about it probably not being an issue at this point, the point is, is that this is not your output sharpening, which will only make both worse, and on a large print, you'd be surprised how big that halo looks up close. And just for shits and grins, I tried a version in Iridient using a new interpolation they have that is very slow but very good, and compared to interpolating in Ps using Bicubic Retaining Detail (or whatever their best thing is called) the Iridient version was palpably better, which is good to know if and when you've got to go really big.
Ben - Did you use any tilts on this image? It was with the T/S-E, right? I'm asking because the left side of the image is noticeably softer than the right side, while the distant mountains in the center are quite sharp, plus the left side has a rather large amount of color fringing - more than the right side. Just curious on that front. But a beautiful composition overall. ...Show more →
This was the 11-24 lens no tilt used. The light at the left was very strong as that was the direction it was coming from.
I already printed some 20x30 equivalent samples and I am not seeing any halos on the prints. Remember, these crops are nearly 11 inches wide on my monitor, but only 3.4 wide in a 20x30 print size. I do see the softness however.
My 17TSe needs to be focused on the edge not the center so maybe the 11-24 does as well.
