Re: Camera recommendation (1500$ budget)

Both are capable bodies. IMO, lenses play a larger role in image quality unless you are looking to do a lot of low/no light photography where you need the best sensor money can buy.

Re: Pre-Screen

Hello Musicman, The crop is passable, but if possible, I would crop closer to the ends of the horizontal stabilizer. It would avoid some dead space on either side. I realize you may not have vertical room to crop in this manner. I also think aircraft looks a bit soft and could benefit from some shar...

Re: Post-screening feedback

Hello JK82, I took a look at your images. The UA 787 needs some additional contrast but otherwise passable for me. The JAL 767 also needs additional contrast. When an image is rejected for "Borders" it means that there is a visible border on one or more of the edges. I do not see any in th...

Re: Pre-Screen

The crop duster looks acceptable to me. The chopper seems to show a slight yellow color cast. Otherwise, it looks OK for me.

Re: Pre-Screen

Hello Musicman,

The fist image looks contrasty to me as well. Marginally passable for me if I was to screen it.

The series of the chopper all need more contrast. None of them would be acceptable IMO.

Regards,

Hi again dutchspotter1 We can't dispute you're right. It has been there a bunch of times before. That said, this image is the first photographed visit of that model by the operator to AMS which means it received priority screening in line with our rules.

Re: Priority Screening Inconsistency

Just a little remark, last night I added a photo of Emirates' new "50 years of UAE" livery on A6-EVG - a special livery that noone had even heard about - and after a (IMHO) petty rejection for being dark, it is now sitting in the queue for 12 hours... I think the website is missing an opp...
