I finally got my hands on a LR with Dehaze filter. I hate it already...
Herb, I think you missed couple of spots
Not sure what does line are...
now that is an interesting adjustment I hadnt considered! I guess I have a problem if I make that adjustment.....good thing I dont consider that an adjustment I make. I still dont see that I have a problem.....sorry
Going over my old shots with the Dehaze filter, where I didn't see any dust before, is a horrible experience. Even old shots taken with the 1DX...
Let's wait what Chimping and therealthings have to say about your shots. I've been out for several weeks and have some catch up to do within this thread...
I have a lot to say about these photos:
1) The area of Herb's photos that would be affected is over exposed. Of course particles will not show to the same extent with the sky over blown. The Dehaze tool brought some of the spots back in Herb's examples, but imagine if the sky wasn't pure white and what the spots would look like then.
2) The Dehaze filter, again, for the one-millionth time, is the best and easiest way to show the affected areas to people who say they don't have any spots whatsoever. The Dehaze tool proves these people wrong. No, not all the spots will show during normal (i.e, real world) edits. That being said, a normal edit where detail is brought back into the sky will still easily show a great many of the spots.
3) What about high-contrast black and white photos? Essentially a black and white conversion can do the exact same thing as the Dehaze tool, which is bring all the crud on the sensor right back into full view. Are people unrealistic to want to do black and whites with the 1DX Mark II?
4) People can claim that the problem doesn't show up in their work and that they are not worried about it. What happens when the accumulation becomes so bad it does eventually show up in your work? People have already said in this thread that Canon has been unable to clean their sensors adequately and have had to replace entire sensor assemblies. At some point, if this problem is left without being addressed, the splatter will interfere with your work. And it's also possible Canon will be unable to fix the problem at that stage without charging a premium for repair.
5) Why is it that no other Canon camera seems to suffer from this same problem? Why are people just accepting this as normal for the 1DX Mark II?
6) Don't you think it's odd, even if you are not bothered by the sensor spots, that the spots are predominately located in the same area of the frame -- the upper-left corner? Do you think that is not indicative of something strange?
