RE: The XBOX One X Is OK - But This Is What I Would Really Like In A Console (Clue it isn't 4K)
So true! In fact dynamic range is the thing that I would love to have - I often find myself having to underexpose shots to make up for it! HDR just always looks fake. I have been told that Medium Format cameras give you more but they are so expensive that I doubt I will ever be able to try one - plus I would rather downsize than go up in size.
I agree, HDR usually looks fake, but sometimes it's a necessary evil. :( I usually only HDR if dynamic range in the shot exceeds the dynamic range of the camera, and then I try to tune the output to look more natural if possible. Although, I'll be honest sometimes my HDR doesn't succeed in looking as real as I would like. Here's one HDR I'm proud of though: https://www.facebook.com/A.Furmanczyk.Photography/photos/a.497540865676.269323.33771525676/10150298063105677/?type=3&theater
That's how it should be done as it doesn't look overdone! I think if an HDR looks like an HDR then it has gone too far.
Thanks man. ^_^ Yes, you're right, HDR is a powerful tool that must be used responsibly. When it's overdone, it's ugly as fuck.
Definitely.
