    I just have to say, as a professional photographer coming from the photojournalism side of things, I've had to learn a lot of tricks in Photoshop when I got hired onto a marketing department. You've been a life saver for years. I appreciate that you put this stuff up for free and you are a very good teacher on top of things. So, thank you to you and your team.

    This is awesome. Your guide on using 16-bit to avoid banding a has transformed my editing workflow. Your clear distinction between color and luminance noise, along with preserving details, is invaluable. Thanks for making complex concepts accessible and enhancing our skills!

    Having worked in many of the top retouching studios, I can tell you none of them work in 16-bit. It is useful to initially process 16-bit RAW files, but they are always processed down to 8-bit for retouching. THEN, as a very last step, convert back to 16-bit, flatten, then back to 8-bit for the final delivery. What this achieves is to render your adjustment layers in 16-bit. Any banding you may have while working in 8-bit is removed in this final step.

    Great tutorial as always. I would also like to learn how different blur modes work and how to decide which one to choose.

    • @KatiePiecrust
      @KatiePiecrust Před 5 měsíci

      In most instances, Gaussian blur is the way to go. Note that older monitors/televisions tend to have difficulty displaying the full range of colors in smooth gradients and thus will likely still have a little bit of banding afterwards, something that can only be properly judged when using a newer and properly calibrated display device meant for work like this.

  • @maximumpat1

    I sometimes get caught out with LED banding. Is this the best way to deal with that or is there a better solution? I truly love the speed at which you explain things. Straight to the point. Thank you.

I'm currently facing a problem with a batch of photo affected by flickering effect (darker bands on photo) do you have some efficient fix for that ? I have to many to fix to do a dodge and burn manually on each of them ! (I've watch the video on removing shadow, that's not good enough...) thanks for everything !

    @thezhouliwei Před 5 měsíci +2

    @PiXimperfect Doesn't the banding going back when we convert from 16-bit channel to 8-bit? I'm not sure that navigators or printers manage 16-bit channels pictures 🤔 so we need to convert pictures back to 8-bit channels, right?
    Thx for your tutorials 🙏

    "8bit" vs "8bit dithering" vs "10bit", common problem in video quality. 😅
    This banding problem always happen to me if I download landscape wallpaper in JPG format, they compressed that to the bone 😅, hard to find any wallpaper with original quality in PNG format.

  • @gregs6424
    @gregs6424 Před 5 měsíci +1

    The problem with this is it causes Photoshop to lag like crazy when you save your file. Takes way too long. And your file size increases a lot too. A simple file like like goes over 1 GB easily. Don't work in 16 bit unless you need to.

  • @Ozone280
    @Ozone280 Před 5 měsíci

    The problem being that if you work in 16 bits many of the filters in Photoshop are unavailable.

  • @barrycraig
    @barrycraig Před 5 měsíci +2

    Working in 16 bit is redundant and slow. It is far, far more efficient to work in 8 bit and only convert to 16 bit before flattening the file after you've finished making any edits. You can then convert back to 8 bit once the file has been flattened.
