[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 835608, member: 48483"] I'm mostly echoing Needa. I used to use the D7000. Newer bodies will have more dynamic range and a newer full-frame sensor will allow you to use higher ISO than you would think is possible. Even a D750 could do better. Not only was your model's top an exposure problem, but her fair skin also factors. Spot meter for the highlights, let the rest be underexposed. Then you can try to recover the darks in post if you shoot Raw. Shooting JPEG only, you limit what you can recover. You won't recover over-exposed, but under-exposed can come back with added noise in shadow. This is why a full-frame would pay rewards with better ISO noise performance. It's extra work, but using another light or 2 for lighting the environment instead of subject could help also, if dialed down manually . [/QUOTE]
