    Holy smokes Ming! In this and the first set, you demonstrate image quality from the D2H that I didn’t think was possible. If I ever decide to sell my D2H, I should link to your photo set to show any potential buyer what this camera (in competent hands) is capable of. :)

    Bravo!

    Amazing images Ming. That first shot of the swans is breathtaking. Wonderful quality of light and sharpness.

    Hi Ming, can you explain your sharpening process please?

    • Ming Thein says:

      That’s not a simple question and depends very much on the camera and the pixel-level file quality. The idea is to sharpen until the point just before haloes appear. I wouldn’t judge the web-size jpegs as the host (flickr) does some odd intermediate sharpening on them after generating the intermediate sizes.
