I've told you before, now, here is the proof.

Hi there,
              I know you heard me before preaching on here about how great the Samsung NX 30 is when paired up with the 18-55m.m kit lens. Here is proof. I took a series of pics the other day of a slug. Yes that's right, a common garden pest, the slug. Now the images are NOT processed form RAW, no they are SOOC jpgs, that I have taken into PSP X4 and only used two commands to post process them. The two commands used were Colour/Fade Correction, with a value of 25, and Fill Light/Clarity with values of 44 for F/L, and, 0 for Clarity. These processes remained constant for the complete set. Below is the first image, this is the straight out of camera jpg.


A nice image yes, but nothing special. But wait, look at the same image below, after using PSP X4 with only slight adjustments.


Now then, there is a heck of a difference in this image, isn't there? Now, my point herre is, if the information is not in the image in the first place, there is nothing much that can be done about it. But take a look at both images, and see the diffence in the skin texture of the second one. I will show you some more later in the week, but suffice to say, I am very pleased with the images that this pairing from Samsung produces. Take a look at another, of the same "model," below.


This image was captured using the NX 30's izoom feature, at x2. Izoom is only available when using Samsung NX lenses, as this is a button on the camera lans itself that is used to access this feature. It is basically a crop of the size that the image would have been, if one was not using the izoom. But I find it incredibly convenient to have this available at the time of shooting, rather than having to do it on the pc at home. Below, is the exact same image, p.p'd in PSP X4 using the same settings as detailed above.


Quite a difference isn't there? But as I said, "If the datils are not in the original, then an Image Editting program cannot put them there." As you can see in the shot above, the 18-55m.m kit lens has captured the details, and PSP X4 has brought them out.

All for now, thanks for looking. Take care and have a great day.
Best wishes, Twm.
