That was worth seeing Oggy - what a structure it is! Thanks for posting it.

The long exposure has turned the water surface into a virtual mirror, as Doug has indicated. So everything under the pier is now complicated by that mirror image.

I can't see any artefacts that the shot itself has introduced to the image?

When you import images into LR, you will get a file import / handling window that opens up. Look in the far right hand pane - you will see an option there for 'Previews'. One of the options is for 'Standard' previews.

These will take longer to load, as each one has to be re-rendered individually on import by LR. The other options use the thumbs generated by the camera itself (they're the ones you would see on the LCD on the camera).

Good thing is though - standard previews are only rendered by LR once.

I've never used anything but standard previews, so I'm not sure if that will make the difference you are looking for. It can't hurt though.

Try selecting 'standard' previews, if not already done - although library mode in my version 3 copy doesn't display for developing purposes. It's more the 'quick & dirty' mode for basic and bulk changes on the run.

Well both the Duchess and the jet (love those wing fences!) are spot on as you say Mike. K7 restored to the top shelf then?

Yet there's nothing wrong with these Mike - maybe it's a matter of getting accustomed to using a different body, and under these fairly specific shooting conditions?

Resizing on its own (even if followed by sharpen) may not get you the result you want. Screen capture (via print_screen or alt+print_screen) may result in the loss of detail you've experienced, also.

You may get a better result with a procedure that includes resampling your jpg with a quality algorithm, and then a resharpen.

Would Sgt Pepper's get a look in here?

If not, then I'm with Pink Floyd also.

The lens' secret is now out, courtesy of these two posts! A very creditable performance...

Whether or not you lose IQ on reducing image size to 800 px wide might depend on the way you go about it - which method do you use Algi?

Hmm - that might be an additional reason to send it in for inspection, clean and service...
