[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 443586, member: 9240"] As I'm thinking about this more and more I believe it has to do with the entire idea of whether or not you [I]really[/I] need to used HDR for a given photo. In cases with 9 stops of dynamic range are sufficient then you don't even need to used HDR if you're shooting RAW, because you get that with most modern sensors and bracketing an extra 3 stops on either end just gives you more black and white information. If it was sunnier outside (like it was this morning) I'd shoot some stuff in the office that would require 13+ stops of range to get and see how that goes, but with the rain coming in that'll need to wait for tomorrow AM. Like I said, I'm not knocking the tool, particularly if you want to make nice, natural looking HDR shots. For the wild stuff you'll still want HDR Efex Pro 2 or Photomatix. [/QUOTE]
