[OM] Re: Panoramics, the Shift-lens way - from shoot to edit, procedural notes

[Jeff Keller]

Hmmm ... I can sort of understand how the non-linear response of film could 
give more shadow detail when there is some flare dumping a little bit of 
light into the dark areas. I can't understand why a sensor having a linear 
response to light would similarly benefit.

It seems that the flare would just overwhelm the desired signal with 
"noise". When printing the image, wouldn't curves allow the dark areas to be 
printed with detail?

This
picture was taken directly into the sun in a high-contrast
scene.  The E-1's dynamic range captured the entire range
without clipping either end!!!!  Smokin!  Older Zuikos DO have
their advantages when it comes to high-contrast scenes as the
reduced contrast helps keep the shadows from blocking up on you.
