True enough. Understand, I have HDR capability. I just don't think it's all
that useful. To really do it right, one
needs both subject and camera that don't move for long enough to bracket
exposures.
And to me, you've got it backwards. I shoot for the highlights and 'recover'
the shadows.
Might you still be in that place where the midtones need to be in the correct
place as the shot is chimped? "It ain't
necessarily so." It's not a really 'bad' place, but limits one's options for
high DR subjects.
