Over the weeks, months and even years this show is starting later and later. That is the show topic doesn't begin until a lot of unnecessary extraneous stuff is covered. For a long time, I immediately begin clicking the red bar at the bottom searching for the REAL start point. Today I hit around the 30 minute mark before I heard the word 'sharpness'. That's half the show. Time is precious.
Yeah, wish I would have read the comments first, so I could have went to the 30:00 mark and started there... Then gotten my 5 minutes of info and left. We don't need the mighty Kelby to read 15 minutes of show comments to us intermingled with some story of him buying a backdrop from Serbia.
Couldn't agree more with James Harris. I don't have time to listen to a lot of extraneous information that had nothing to do with the topic. If I clicked on your site for this info, that is what I want. I like getting to the point - sharpness in photos with photoshop or lightroom - Please, do save your chatting for the end of your presentation.
Congratulations guys, the topic finally started at 30 minutes, then amongst other jibber you spent about 15 minutes of the 66 minute show on the topic. You get a bloke like Moose on, then hardly cover a topic that he is an expert on. I like having fun, rapport between presenters and know you have to pay the bills, but this getting harder to watch these once-informative webcasts.
Yeah, it seems like quite of few of the videos are trending in this direction. It's either a bunch of jokes that really lead nowhere or, more commonly, just one long promotion for one product or another. I really love and appreciate Scott, especially for the photographers he gets to come on, but the actual content is lacking in a lot of cases. That kind of defeats the point, IMHO.
Hey Kelbyone team. I love your shows. Did some of your online classes. Love them and i still use them. But talking about sharpness, we all know it starts with how to hold a camera and the shutter speeds...but what about aperture? I find it the most difficult part. You got to know your lens and how do you know that? Also i find it to be the most asked question... what aperture are u using. We all know dof, and bokeh. Why do people shoot f8 with a f1.4 lens you ask? Well, 1meter distance at f1.4 and a DOF of 3cm and they do headshots and get only 1 eye sharp, thats why. Or why is landscape at f11 sharp? Groupshots at f5.6 at a particular distance...are sharp. Do a grid or a class only about aperture. May help some people i guess.
Hey Scott. Sony's have a dedicated zoom button. Whether it focuses with spot focus, on a face or even an eye one press will zoom in 10x on the focal point.
Why spend all that money on photoshop if it can't even do the thinks that Nik Collection can/could? Videos like this deter me even more from paying for a subscription to Adobe.

James Harris thank you for the info!!! I will skip the first 30 minutes 👍👏👏👏
i know its getting beyond a joke!
Thank you, keep posting, I started at 30. Saved 30 min of my life.

Moose got it right. Photographers get it right in the camera. Editors fix it later.
Can someone help me set the shortcut to max zoom in image review that Scott referenced? (Canon 80D). I can't seem to find it in the manual or online.

I can only hope that some software company buys Nik from Google. I would pay any reasonable price to keep using Nik.
truth. Nik is legit. Helps me so much.

Try moving the mouse around the entire time
Google where photo plugins go to die!
Too much rambling. Video could have been 30 minutes! All the time needed to get pertinent info.
Russ Campbell you're new to The Grid I see. They do this every week. If you don't enjoy it that's fine.

Good, but ... all this and you don't even talk about sharpening for print?

why does he refer to himself in the third person a lot?
