Adobe recently added the ability to eliminate reflections in some existing raw files, including Nikon NEF files, through a technology preview.

After a nice little windfall buying and selling some camera equipment, I was able to purchase a full frame camera - again. A new FF sensor is better than an old APS-C!

I've been in this particular grove on Vancouver Island a number of times, and the conditions a couple of weeks ago in this old growth forest were the best I've ever seen.

Hello everyone, I am new here. I have a weird issue with my Z6III camera, I noticed it during a shoot at a musical event with lots of flashing lights/LEDs. I have flicker reduction turned on.

I am posting the December challenge early as I will be traveling and with limited access to a PC.

I was out of town for a week and thought I'd try different things.
