[QUOTE="Dangerspouse, post: 765409, member: 46690"] When I got home from shopping yesterday I saw a really pretty butterfly in our (appropriately named) butterfly bush by the front door. I had my D500 with the 70-300 sitting right inside the door, so I grabbed it and fired off a few shots before it flew away. But in my haste I completely forgot that I was still in full manual mode with settings that were completely inappropriate. I ended up with an about 15 shot burst, all of which looked like this, OOC: [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]361342._xfImport[/ATTACH] But god bless the dynamic range on that D500. The histogram showed the whites weren't blown out, so this was in effect I suppose a, "expose to the right" shot. In Lightroom then I just adjusted the exposure, shadows, etc., and was able to produce this: [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]361344._xfImport[/ATTACH] It's not the greatest of pics. I front focused a bit, just missing focus on the head. But I'm really impressed with how much I was able to recover, especially compared to my D5500. [/QUOTE]
