[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 778781, member: 50197"] OK, got back a little while ago. Had a great time. Being a Saturday, the beach was much more "crowded" than the weekdays when we were there before. Crowded as in maybe 6 or 7 people at a time on the beach. Not an issue at all, except you had to make sure you weren't in someone's shot when walking down the beach to a new location. Only happened twice to me, that I had to walk up closer to the treeline. Anyway, the camera worked very well. Had a nice feel to it. I didn't end up using in camera HDR, as there were few clouds and the prime time was very short, so I didn't want to spend time playing with the menus to go out of auto bracket to HDR and then back again. Everything was shot in 5 exp auto bracket with 1 stop increments. ASA was set at 100 and aperture preferred at F8. Tripod protocol was sloppy, but seemed to work fine. Couldn't figure out the time exposure in the near dark, so just winged it with hand on the shutter button the whole time. I know, sloppy. Next time I'll either use the timer, or buy a corded remote. Snapbridge doesn't seem to allow continuous shots with a single button push. Enough background, on to the HDR import. I picked two to start with, and will show the second, just because I like it better, and I think it shows the differences more clearly. I imported and merged the 5 files. I choose minimal deghosting as I liked the look of the water better. The software had no issue with the radically different water patterns. I previewed high deghosting and it looked like it picked the waves portion from one of the individual images and ran with it. I liked the softer look of the minimal. I edited the resultant merged image and saved it. I then picked the normal exposure single image and edited it. Not a huge difference in the two. I do like the HDR version better. The first set I did made the HDR version much easier to edit than the single, but the results were very similar between the two. This set, not much difference in ease of editing. Here the two are: First is the single image. Second is the HDR. [ATTACH type="full"]371566._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]371564._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
