I'm curious my friends and would welcome some feedback. This is a really super forum.
Is the viewing of images in Lightroom at 100% the same as viewing images with a resolution of 5472 x 3648 on Flickr ? I ask as some Flickr images with a resolution of 5472 x 3648 look fabulous.
I have imported my images ( raw - iso 160 , aperture f5.6 ) into Lightroom and have made appropriate adjustments i.e. exposure , sharpening etc - They look excellent at "normal" viewing , very good at 50% but rather disappointing at 100% - a tady mushy in appearance and more so on the frame edges. Do you have the same experience ?
Does viewing an image at 50% on your monitor within Lightroom equate approximately to how 18" x 12" print may look and viewing an image at 100% equate to a 36" x 24" print ?
What should I be doing to ensure that my images look at their best on i.e. Flickr following adjustments in Lightroom ? I have heard that downsizing is appropriate and produces better quality output !!!
I guess optimum IQ is achieved via the skill of the photographer and high quality equipment i.e. DSLR or CSC with a very good quality lens or full frame, again with a very good quality lens. But then again are you serioulsy going to notice any difference in output ( between the RX100 and the aforementioned ) as long print sizes do not exceed A3/A4 and as long as you do not pixel peep beyond 50% on your monitors ?
Thank you kindly.
I am learning but slowly.
