AKorenc Posted March 2, 2021 Share #1 Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi, today I went out and tried the Multi Shot (MS) mode on SL2 for the first time ... and I must say I'm dissapointed - to say the least. Images look like cr@p, highlight tones are gone, kinda "truncated" or posterized compared to the usual shot ... this is far from "superb" image quality, this ain't even acceptable. Is this it or am I doing something wrong? See some images and crops bellow; the compared shots are comparing MS shot on the left to a normal one on the right: Welcome, dear visitor!

Photoworks Posted March 2, 2021 Share #2 Posted March 2, 2021 Question is what program you are using to view the images? I get very clean images. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
beewee Posted March 3, 2021 Share #3 Posted March 3, 2021 Funny, I saw something similar on my SL2-S when I experimented with multishot this weekend and loaded it into the iPad Photos app. Normal res DNG look fine and the high res DNG looked worse. I haven’t done much digging into this further but I have a feeling what you’re seeing on the high res DNG is actually a preview image embedded in the DNG and not the actual processed raw image from the DNG. It seems to me that some programs that support DNG doesn’t support the high res multishot DNG so you can only see the preview image that’s embedded rather than generate a processed image from the raw DNG data. I think the best way to confirm is to load the same files into the latest version of Adobe Lightroom and see what it does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKorenc Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share #5 Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) These are screenshots from Lightroom (Classic, latest version) and are indeed DNG files - I also checked them in Libraw LLC's program RAW Digger (used to check TRUE RAW file, without any baked-in corrections) and saw the same. So these are definitely "corrupted" RAW/DNG files from the camera itself, not a consequence of the program being used. Shot in A mode; ISO fixed at 50 (not Auto!); 28mm; f/5.6, 1/80s The lens used was Nikon's NIKKOR 28mm f/1.4E via Novoflex NIK-SL adapter. This combo otherwise works great in AF-S mode; fast&accurate focusing, accurate exposure and WB metering ...
