Change any setting you require then click on the icon top right of the panel (four horizontal lines) and chose "Save New Camera Raw Defaults"

Thank you

Incredible sharpness throughout.....I can’t help likening the Geese, to those heavy military transport planes, their wings are very similar..

Thanks this older shot makes me think of bomber

Been struggling with over sharpened images just noticed the default sharpening in ACR is set at 40% it used to be 21%, how can i get it back to 21% so i don't have to change it every time, i am using CC.

Thanks

Perhaps a strange one to like maybe.

Thought i would run a thread with my flight captures that ime pleased with but don't want to start a new thread for.

Will try, don't do well with preset themes though.

Well if i could manage it i would be using a D500 AND 150-600 but it wont happen, so long as i can keep taking pictures ime happy.

I use mirrorless because i need light gear, this takes me down to m4/3 because no matter how small or light the body is sensor size dictates lens bulk, most of the time.

Sometimes i get the flow wrong and the subject is not where i wanted it to be like this.

Extending the canvass is not always the answer, BIF against a clear sky is one thing, this sort of shot needs to be fairly right in the camera though.

All the money i spend on gear and i only needed  TG-5, oh and your talent.

More mono please Mike.....

I realise that Thailand is a naturally colourful place, but with all that beautiful natural light and shadow play, you have no excuse.....

Who said...." A photograph in colour is a picture of the clothes, but a photograph in colour is a picture of the Soul"..?.... or words to that effect

Hate to say this but it could be an age thing, i love clour images but i think I spend a little more time looking at B/W.

Like the B/W one the most.

Great set again Michael.

Lovely bright start to my morning

Don't know how to quote postings.

You can highlight part of it and then a quote option comes up you can copy and past, although ime sure i tried it before 30 posts and it didnt work, or click the gear wheel near the bottom left of the post but again ime sure it didnt work before 30 posts

If so tell us what it is and why, a couple of images to show why liked about it would be nice.

First i would have to say the Nikon D500, it is great for action shots, the only reason i sold mine was i

couldn't handle it with a 600mm on,  i only had a 100-400 which was too short.

The other camera i miss and may get again is the Nikon P900 bridge camera, great for small birds in the mid to close range

I refuse to take the blame.

Nice to see you here Michael

Anyone that can make it should, it's a great photo opportunity, unfortunately, most of my days out are on a mobility scooter, the one i could take to Lincoln in the car boot would never cope with the hills. 

If anyone is staying overnight a nice shot used to be the cathedral taken standing near the castle entrance after dark.

Thanks for the welcome everyone

The modern world

Lovely camera the GX8 it was my first m4/3, the only reason i parted with it was the 100-400 i had at the time was very stiff to zoom, gripping the camera to hold against the stiff zoom twisting made me catch buttons, i think i could have deactivated them but that didn't seem to be a good idea.

After a very long time of all Nikon i needed to change

Olympus EM1MK11

Olympus EM10MK11

Panasonic/Leica 100-400

Olympus 14-42 and 40-150 Kit lenses

Nikon V2 10-30 and 30-110 FT-1 adapter but no Nikon lenses to use it with.
