Does DxO’s raw developings engine calculate the fact that the Panasonic DMC G80 doesn’t have a AA-filter? (its more prone to acting out in moiré effects but sharper in general.) (i have the tool anti moiré default on active assuming it only is moderating the image if necessary.)
==> YES, of course we do.
However, if you have images for which you think that Moire removal is still good enough, please send us these images and the associated sidecar. It is great to help us improve our product.
The fact that if i zoom in on the moiré showing image the effect is gone means that it is over detailing/sharpend, (Clearview is triggering this behaviour on brickstructure’s) and that basicly the limitation of 1920x1080 of FHD which cpu cuts out half of the pixels of 4600x3500 jpeg the 16Mp rawfile can produce. This causes zigzaged lines and moiré.
How to avoid this except use the HDTV JPEG modes of dxo’s export which lowers resolution to 2048 and 300ppi and Bicubic sharper.
( i will select some of the problem images and stick those in a 4K or 8K TV in a store to see if then the problem is gone.)
==> It’s better if you can send us your image and the setting you want to apply.
what means the interpolation types basicly what does this settings?
==> We have 3 interpolation options
- Bilinear: As its name sound, it is bilinear interpolation
- Bicubic: it is bicubic interpolation. The bicubic is slightly better than bilinear in terms of the image quality
- Bicubic sharper: it is the same as bicubic, but we apply a sharpen on the interpolated image of the bicubic step.
And note that all these 3 methods have anti-aliasing.
You can experience by yourself by applying these 3 options on your images, and compare 3 output images of these 3 options.
finaly, 90% quality is the ideal balance between compression/filesize and max possible image quality correct?
==> YES
To all in general: how would you store your processed images for watching (not selling or printing on large canvas or something. its a home watching only.
i intend to do a max quality image storage because viewing appliances are evolving and lost resolution is lost for ever. (yes i know re-export from rw2 full scale.)
==> If you don’t have storage constraint, we recommend you to do NOT use any downsample option. Just keep the output’s resolution as the input one. Set the jpeg quality to 90 is a good balance
Every one knows the effect you get from digitalized VHS tapes and old images/ video’s of compact camera’s of 2005 on your 48" FHD screen. (bad resolution if auto upscaling is active or 1/8 of the screen used if 1:1 is active.
Does the viewer-engine influence the quality? (i use a linuxbased Kodi for viewing purposes not straight in usb of TV of WiFi connect to nass.)
==> We think yes. For example, if you use zoom function of this viewer-engine, if this zoom function works well, you will get correct image. But if it is not the case, you could get weird image.
