You've got (junk)mailNot too exciting
![]() ![]()
Man, I love the colour reproduction you get out of the D50. Excellent stuff. Your right the subject isn't the most exciting but I dig the saturated colours. What colour mode do you shoot in ?
I always shoot in sRGB mode IIIa, with enhanced colour turned on.
I leave tone and sharpness set to Auto or Normal. I also generally set an exposure bias of -0.3 or -0.7, helps keep the tone nice and saturated. The D50 has a slight tendency to overexpose (opposite and more aggressive than the D70s). I've shot with a D70 and pretty got the same result out of it using the above settings. You may wish to load a more aggressive tone cuve into the D70 as it seems much less contrasty than the D50
Straight from the cam - I notice I did use hard contrast mode on this one. So this is a jpg straight from the D50 It just means you basically won't have to curve or change the levels via PP Heres the EXIF [Image] Make = NIKON CORPORATION Model = NIKON D50 Software = Ver.1.00 Date Time = 2006-03-13 23:02:42 IPTC/NAA = 32 Byte Exif IFD Pointer = Offset: 188 [Camera] Exposure Time = 1/160" F Number = F4.5 Exposure Program = Aperture priority ISO Speed Ratings = 400 Exif Version = Version 2.21 Date Time Original = 2006-03-13 18:49:53 Date Time Digitized = 2006-03-13 18:49:53 Shutter Speed Value = 7.32 TV Aperture Value = 4.34 AV Exposure Bias Value = -0.33EV Max Aperture Value = F4.44 Metering Mode = Pattern Light Source = unknown Flash = Off Focal Length = 46mm Subsec Time Original = 0.10" Subsec Time Digitized = 0.10" Sensing Method = One-chip color area sensor File Source = DSC Scene Type = A directly photographed image CFA Pattern = [B,G],\r\n[G,R] Custom Rendered = Normal process Exposure Mode = Auto exposure White Balance = Auto white balance Digital Zoom Ratio = 1x Focal Length In 35mm Film = 69mm Scene Capture Type = Normal Gain Control = None Contrast = Hard Saturation = High saturation Sharpness = Soft Subject Distance Range = unknown
Hmm. Doesn't really do anything for me, I'm afraid.

Well it wasn't the most exciting picture, just thought people would like the colour. But hey I know it wasn't IR or a grainy out-of-focus steet shot ![]() Cheers
