The photo to the right was taken on the iPhone XS Max on a short hike from Trail Ridge Road. We captured this image of an Aspen Gove as the clouds passed overhead giving us beautiful soft diffused light. The D850 exposures for the images averaged between 1/20 of a second to 1/160 of a second at f/10 and f/11. We used the D850’s native ISO of 64. The iPhone XS Max images specs were ISO 16 at 1/160 of a second at f/2.4 hand held. Adobe Lightroom Classic CC is our editing and Digital Asset Management tool of choice. These are all single RAW files processed as DNG files with the exception of the iPhone XS Max photos which are JPEG images.
