You will require it during monsoons when the humidity goes up beyond 70% at times. The Dry box humidity should bee maintained between 40 to 50%

I bought a 108 ltr Photron dry cabinet through Kamal Imaging Mumbai. He gave me a discounted price of Rs 15000/-. It has been with me for about 15 days and is working well. All the brands are China made. It has a five years guarantee for whatever it is worth.

I have 2 cameras XT 5 and Nikon D 500, 2 long lens and 5 other lenses and 2 binoculars and all fit in comfortably but the dry box is now full.

1. Level adjustment option is not available in LR, but you can use the whites and the blacks slider to get the same results.

Noted with Thanks

2. Once you come back to LR after using PS or 3rd party tools, the original file no is displayed back and then you an do an export.

I just add the no while exporting so not much of an issue

3. The latest version of LR has Denoise option available which is far better than the Topaz Denoise. The other tools which you use has its limitations when you move away from LR / PS.

I agree. The LRC denoise is much better. But it takes 8 to 10 mins for the operation to be completed vis a vis Topaz Denoise which takes a minute or so

4. If it is PS tutorial you are referring to, it is under Image -> Adjustment -> Levels.

Found it. Thanks

My thoughts as an amateur photographer and hobbyist, senior citizen veteran Indian Army.

1. Liked your tutorials a lot

2. LRC has its advantages as work flow is smooth and in one software, found Adobe Bridge,Raw and Photoshop easier to process photos especially using Topaz AI denoise, PhotoAI and sharpen.

3. Pls add fuji film XT 5 in your stable of tutorials.

4. I was doing my birding with D 500 and 200-500mm lens. I bought a XT5 and 150-600 mm lens basically because it is much lighter and a friend and ex army colleague who is an expert birder and landscape photographer was using the Fuji Film platform. I have used the XT5 a few times but I found its focusing much slower than D 500 and it keeps jumping from one point to another. In addition i found the images of D 500 much sharper. This is my observation, maybe because I am new to XT 5 and will improve my technique as we go along and use it more often.
