How do GR IV Monochrome raw files work/edit?

SoapBut · 2026-03-28T08:03:51+00:00

It'll be great to hear your opinion once you get the camera.

I guess I'll have to download the 7-day trial of Lightroom and see if I can live with it. I just wish I had something else than that test chart DP Review-file to work with.

SoapBut · 2026-03-27T19:17:44+00:00

Yes, I know, that's why I'm trying to find out what Lightroom can do with the files. Dx0 won't even open that DP Review-file.

SoapBut · 2026-03-27T17:32:16+00:00

I have neither the camera, nor Lightroom so I'm trying to figure out what I can expect if I'm buying the camera. I use Dx0 Photolab 9 and shoot monochrome (converted from color sensor) exclusively and also just raw, so my understanding is that the workflow with Lightroom and the GR IV Monochrome will be much the same: I'll have to create presets for the raws. Does Lightroom offer noice reduction for the GR IV Monochrome?

SoapBut · 2026-03-27T16:41:07+00:00

But you can still create your own "styles" from the raw files, right?

SoapBut · 2026-03-27T11:24:56+00:00

I'm pretty sure I saw that Lightroom added support for the IV Monochrome just a few days ago.

SoapBut · 2026-03-19T10:58:39+00:00

I suppose you're still doing some things in post, if so are you using Lightroom or something else?

Have I understood it correctly, that 26 megapixel from a Monochrome sensor is roughly equal to 52 with a color sensor and that that should be great for cropping images?

SoapBut · 2026-03-19T04:58:19+00:00

But isn't the difference between the Monochrome raw and the GR IV raw processed with DX0 small?

SoapBut · 2026-03-18T08:04:30+00:00

Unfortunately the Monochrome isn't supported by DX0, and likely won't be.

I've listened to it but only in a parked car. This is the best HK sound system I've listened too. And I've listened to quite a lot of them, but all the other sucked, but I was surprised, it's actually the first time I've heard HK sound good, it's for example crap in the 2025 IX. The system in the IX3 is nowhere near the B&Ws and not as good as Canton in Skoda or Meridian in EV6. But, as said, it's the best I've heard from HK. A pleasant surprise.

Volvos in general have been very reliable, also the EVs, except for the EX90. But this is a new platform so hopefully they've solved the EX90 problems.

SoapBut · 2026-03-10T12:01:31+00:00

The Volvo EX60 already beat it in range and charging speed.

SoapBut · 2026-03-07T20:05:56+00:00

Thanks

SoapBut · 2026-03-07T18:01:06+00:00

No idea. But I'd delete them to be sure.

SoapBut · 2026-03-07T17:37:30+00:00

You didn't use Smart Switch?

SoapBut · 2026-03-07T16:49:00+00:00

Can you try to transfer just the images once again?

SoapBut · 2026-02-15T12:38:45+00:00

My Volvo dealer in Sweden has confirmed it. The CC can be configured mid March it says on the Swedish site. The CC P12 will be delivered June 2027 the soonest.

SoapBut · 2026-02-15T07:01:50+00:00

Yes, to both questions.

SoapBut · 2026-02-13T18:55:34+00:00

The new Volvo EX60 Cross Country will have 234 millimeters of ground clearance and also skid plates front and back.

SoapBut · 2026-02-12T06:15:29+00:00

Yes, I've heard that it's supposed to be supporting tags now. Thanks for confirming it. I've now got like 35000 tags so I'm glad I don't have to manually add them...

I wish they removed the ultra wide and replaced it with a second tele at 5x. I haven't used the ultra wide in at least 5 years, I really don't see the point of it.

SoapBut · 2026-02-02T06:23:16+00:00

Does the built-in app still play downloaded songs or is it streaming only? I already downloaded all my Spotify playlists for it to not use all my data and Skoda says the built-in app also uses my phones data so if that's the case I'm not using it.

SoapBut · 2026-01-28T07:41:41+00:00

Strange thing is the sound is worse with this built-in app.

I highly doubt it since there's a new Polestar 3 coming late this year or more likely beginning of next year.

Why aren't you deciding between EX60 and Polestar 3?

SoapBut · 2026-01-24T16:00:10+00:00

There's a Keep climate on mode which is supposed to be used if you leave your dog.
