My point more is your pushing so hard on the files do you not expect it to fall apart at some point. Folks can process whatever style they want but complaining about after you hit the point of no return is crying wolf. Also it needs to be clearly stated on what your are doing as not to confuse people with less experience in these matters. It really teaches them nothing. I teach workshops and I would clearly make points as to where these limits are going to be. This is misleading people thinking they are going to run into this when they may never get close to the limits. This stuff needs to be in context of of what works, where the points of no return are. All we hear are this stuff sucks with no real explanation as to the heavy pushing going on. That\'s really not normal for most people to be doing that. But let\'s be real honest here I\'m a expert at raw processing and I never seen a case where pushing the shadows up to 100 percent is even remotely a normally exposed file. I\'m sorry but that\'s misleading as hell. Does this help someone new to the Sony system or wants to purchase them. I\'m not so much talking of the poster above he clearly said he is doing something diffrent to his files, good for him and his technique. But all we hear is how crappy this compression is when in fact you really have to go looking for the problem. Not sure that really helps people. Now granted I\'m a old time Pro with 40 years experience but I don\'t post that every 5 minutes either. So my opinion does count and I\'m more about the industry and the people that enjoy being in it and educating people to make smart choices. This does not necessarily help them.

It is very valuable to have you experience and your contributions here. We just don\'t want this place to only be a place where simplifications are made because we don\'t want do confuse beginners. We also want this to be a place where we can explore and analyze the limits. What used to be the limits of how far something can be pushed without problems has changed, and we don\'t want to live within the limits of yesterday.
