I'm going to be playing around with Hasselblad H4D-200MS sample images, and I'm wondering how much processing power I'll need to process these images. In particular, how much RAM will I need?
well, I know many folks find that working with the D800 36MP files is good at 16GB for Lightroom. So if RawTherapee's memory requirements aren't too much more crazy than LR, I'd expect 24GB to be around the minimum good for 50MP files
I would like to create realistic looking videos based on a 3D animated video. Usually it is not possible to achieve a good effect in 3D even with a lot of effort, and object textures and human skin will always look too "cartoony". Is there any automated tool that can improve the appearance of an ...
@AJHenderson I got to do a production training session yesterday at Church of the Highlands in Birmingham, AL. Its like the 4th'ish largest church in the nation. The stuff they have there is insane
Back to the memory discussion: The problem is that RawTherapee uses close to 2 GB of RAM to process 16-megapixel RAW data from my Pentax K-5.
I don't know if memory usage scales a bit less than linearly with larger files, but I suspect I might not be able to handle 200-megapixel H5D-200MS output...
That's if you process the data through Phocus. As I've previously stated, RawTherapee uses much more memory because of its 32-bpc, 96-bpp floating-point pipeline (normally only used for video and HDR).
well, i don't think anybody is going to have an answer for you. The number of folks processing images from a $40k+ camera through RawTherapee is probably close to zero
Hang on... Do I understand well... Amazon got a Patent for the exclusivity of photographying stuff in front of a white wall ? Like they "could" ask a photograph for money because he "reproduced" Amazon's technic to photograph a family in front of a white wall ??
Yeah Amazon's attitude is a kind of consequence of this system
It's just a preventive act
That's quite amazing they allow that... It's like acquiring a patent for car wash with a sponge, wearing red pants on a saturday afternoon, because you don't want your neighbour to take it first :)
"don't hate the player, hate the game" - of course that's not a completely valid defense; the ethical course of action would be actually trying to change the game
@DragonLord RAWTherapee wastes memory on the thumbnail view. They recommend to keep the number of photos per folder low. Only 100 photos per album or preferably less. There may happen memory related crashes even when you are in the middle of editing a photo due to a too "heavy" photo folder.
^^ that's all invalid, if they have released a new version of RAWTherapee recently, and the problem has been fixed.
@AJHenderson The physics are the same so I agree with the rest I have to admit. It's still an aperture, a path through which the light travels, and if it was a mask then the image itself would be shaped.
Isn't it both at the same time? It's a mask to a degree, just a very, very, out of focus one, but it still causes vignetting vaguely in the shape of the aperture
@JohnCavan yeah, I can certainly see the relationship, I guess we'll see how the reopen vote fairs. Either way, my comments should provide sufficient detail for the higher level of detail in the dupe post to provide him with what he needs
it's certainly borderline
it's a little different I think since it is in front of the optics instead of in the middle of it
so it isn't exactly an aperture, it is an obstruction of the front element
is there no way to tell if a photo has been exported or not in adobe lightroom, unless you use the published services panel and publish to the hard drive?
i wish there was a badge (those tiny little icons) that tells you when a photo has been exported
just like there are badges to indicate photos with develop adjustments
Simply putting a heart shaped cut-out in front of the lens
turns this
into this
How does that happen? What's the optics behind this phenomenon?
