For your project HDR must be a godsend.

Of course the primitive old fashioned way to deal with sunset/sunrise exposure was graduated filters. ;-).


Absolutely, I have tried with each successive (digital) camera since the D1, to copy these slides, finally I got there, partly the HDR, partly the high resolution and partly the very forgiving nature of the D800's exposure latitude, I can only guess at what the 810 and of course the D850, are capable of, but to coin a phrase, these are 'good enough'. When I was working, building and someone said "that's near enough" There would be a resounding chorus from his mates, "But Is it right?".

Well, yes they are, exposure wise anyway. In fact a couple of them are outstanding.
