I wouldn't bother too much about it. Oddly the 2nd one is only 247kb. The other two are 382kb and 390kb.

Photoshop is good. Should be tutorials on Youtube.

Just had another look the colour is better on the 2nd especially the greens
No guarantee that that will always be the case though.

Nothing in it between the last two apart from one looking very slightly different in terms of colour, but it might be an illusion.

At 532p wide nothing is going to look too good on this site

Suppose your on location with a client using a laptop without internet access? Are you buggered

It's similar to renting a house after 25 years you have nothing to show wheras if took out a mortgage you would have a house. Once you stop paying for PS monthly your left with nothing

ACDSee once brilliant, before it went bloatware is supposed to be getting better.

I still use ACDSee 3.1 as a viewer.... nothing beats it. It's 17 years old

Derek, the forum software has reduced all these to 532p wide in my case, but the last one is way better than the first. By a big margin

For printing I output a full sized jpeg and max quality (12) .... This generally produces a file around 7-10mb from the K7, again plenty enough for large prints using online services.
Presumably you are producing around 14 megapixel images (assuming uncropped) from the K-7 so, just as a point of interest, how large do you go, Nigel? (So far, I haven't printed bigger than A3.)

10 is the maximum quality 11 and 12 just produce bloated files see....

https://petapixel.com/2011/08/26/a-higher-quality-setting-in-photoshop-sometimes...

"the quality values go from 1-12 instead of the standard 1-10. They say it’s because the maximum value people are expected to use is 10. For the values 11 and 12 (included for “experimental reasons”), you don’t actually get much noticeable change in image quality, but file size balloons like crazy!"

Well worth saving a set at 1024 pixels wide so that they can be seen on most monitors without the viewing program needing to re-size them.

But that is not much use to someone with a 1920x1080 monitor. I like to see pictures fill the screen.
Then buy a 1024 wide Monitor

Well worth saving a set at 1024 pixels wide so that they can be seen on most monitors without the viewing program needing to re-size them. Windows own built in viewer makes a mess of resizing. Viewers should also sharpen the image they reduce but rarely do.

Photographers are rarely interested in what photographs look like..... Photography nowdays is all about buying equipment and ticking comparison lists

Resize Magic is very good and can do batches. The standalone version is small and FREE ...
