[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 778699, member: 50197"] OK, just to add, I tried some practice shots in the yard just now. When I use in camera HDR, it does save the RAW images as well. I can control the amount of exposure differential I want, or let the camera decide. The fly in the ointment is that it only takes two images. I may try that for one or two picture tomorrow, but I think I'll just auto bracket most everything I shoot. I also cannot leave the camera in auto bracket mode to use HDR mode. It's one or the other. Too much trouble to switch back and forth for anything other than a quick test or two. One issue at this shoot is the light changes quickly. You have to be ready to shoot, and then move to another scene quickly if you want to get a decent number of images before the good light is gone. There is plenty of time after the sun is fully up, but the prime time is short. You have to be ready with a plan, or get left behind. This brings up another question. Should I bracket 5 images, or just do 3? I plan on using 1 stop increments. Unless experience dictates that I'm wasting time and card space, I will plan on using 5. According to the camera, I have space for 2600 pics on the card. The only issue in my mind is that early on in the sunrise timeline, the shutter speeds are rather low. This could slow down shooting. Of course, these are the conditions where I most need extra dynamic range. If nothing else, I can use 5 this time, and then try both 5 and 3 in lightroom and see the difference. [/QUOTE]
