[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 833542, member: 50197"] This is where the mirrorless cameras really shine IMO. You get a nice preview of the exposure in the viewfinder. For example, I know that with white birds in sunlight I'm going to have to give it anywhere between 1.0 - 2.5 stops of underexposure to avoid blowing out the highlights in the birds. With my mirrorless, I can just rotate the compensation until I start to see detail in the feathers, and I'm good. I probably could use a little less compensation, and deal with things in post processing, but this methods seems to work very well for me, and gives less headaches in post. I'd much rather deal with underexposed shadows than overexposed highlights. [/QUOTE]
