No. It looks exactly how I'd expect a still from a video to look.

I'd be fascinated to know why you suspected image fiddling here.

Yes? No?

Yes, but have you watched the video?

I think if anything is Photoshopped, it might be the sign, not the guy. This is a screenshot from a video, yes? Have you watched the video?

Ctrl O uses ACR through Photoshop. Ctrl R uses ACR through Bridge. I'm interested to know if that makes a difference to your problem.

Which is the equivalent of Ctrl R. I'd be interested to see if it makes any difference when you use Ctrl O instead.

Huh. And out of curiosity, how do you open your raw files from Bridge? Ctrl O or Ctrl R?

Just to check - does it crash when you only open one photo?

I'll send you an email about this.

I've moved this thread into Brian's area because he's much more intelligent than me. I suspect your 2080 might not be strong enough, but I don't know.

It's definitely not great, but it should sharpen up okay.

Oh gee, those presets don't exist any more. There are new ones. I've sent you an email.

Unfortunately it's not that simple. If you sent me a carton of eggs, a bag of flour, a tub of sugar, a block of butter, etc, you could ask me to bake a cake with it. I'd measure the quantities I needed, and make a delicious cake. But if you sent me those ingredients already mixed together and asked me to pop it in the oven, the cake would be a disaster.

*head in hands, sobbing* Yes.

In the same place as always. Under "Optics".

This is why I generally use Method 1, not Method 2, for culling.

"IPS Level" means "not IPS".

Don't be silly. Move to Bridge.

You literally have the Creative Cloud app on your computer, yes?

We're fans of Dells here. I'm sure you'd like that monitor. But no, I can't see it making a difference to your choice of calibrator.

In the Help menu, there should be "About Photoshop". Does that tell you?

Then yes, I definitely agree with you. I can't see any benefit in getting the HL.

To confirm, this is the screen you have? https://www.gigabyte.com/Monitor/M32Q/sp

Yep, for sure. Go ahead and do the raw processing as usual, then show me again.
