Nikon / Re: Nikon 200-500 lens for stock photos?
« on: February 21, 2018, 12:36 »
Thanks a lot for all information.

Mantis, thanks for the exposure info and wow stock photos with that high ISO! Probably its all about to take good pictures and try to hide the noice.

Chichikov, thanks for the very informative article. Im going to read it again and again and......... One of my reasons for looking for the Nikon lens is the fact that I use a Nikon camera.

Increasingdifficulty, thanks again for all interesting input.


Im talking about handhold shooting because you never knows where or when a flying bird shows up, but Im sure sometimes I will also use a tripod.

Thank you for your opinion. Yes, there is always better (and more expensive) lenses but in this price range this is probably one of the best. I can only hope that the stock agencies not only looks at the ISO numbers but instead looks at the whole picture quality.
And if I understand you right this combo in good light, in general, could produce images that would be suitable as stock photos.
Thanks again.

Nikon / Nikon 200-500 lens for stock photos?
« on: February 21, 2018, 05:03 »
Ive so far been shooting landscapes and nature details with my Nikon D500 and always at ISO 100. Now Im planning to by a Nikon 200-500 lens for some flying birds shooting. I have read that this lens should be a good choice and perfect suitable to a Nikon D500. But my concerns is if the ISO would be a problem because shooting flying birds needs ISO 1000 - 2000 with f 5,6 and handhold camera. Ok, can do some noice reduction in Lightroom but is there a risk that the images still will be too noicy for acceptance at i.e Shutterstock or Fotolia? Anyone with experiance from this combo?

Thanks a lot for your suggestions. Nice, there seems to be solutions for two contributors to use DeepMeta at the same computer. I will try to get it work. Thanks for your help. :)

Krilcis, hope you will find some solution.

Thanks for your answers. I've also done some research and it seems as LR can do the most adjustments I need to do with my RAW/JPEG files. But as you say in your answers LR can't do everything Elements does. But in my case I think LR are going to be enough for my needs so I go for LR. And afterall I still have Elements if I wish to do someting LR can't do.

How it's going to be with ACR when I import my RAWs to LR i have not figured out yet. When I use Elements the ACR opens automatic, but with LR perhaps ACR not is necessary?

Any risk for uploading problems (Filezilla) when I change to LR? I dont think so as the files still are on my HD (LR just handles them).

General Photography Discussion / Upgrading software?
« on: February 19, 2013, 16:00 »
Ive been in microstock industry for more than 1 year now and would like to get some advices about the software I am using. I shoot with a Nikon D7000 and I upload RF images to 10 different agencies. My software for preparing the images before submitting is Photoshop Elements and for the captions and keywords I use Windows 7. Uses FTP client for uploading.
Can I improve my workflow and  also get better possibilities to improve the quality of my images if I upgrade for example to Lightroom 4?
Is it in that case necessary to use both Elements and Lightroom or can Lightroom do the things Elements does?
