Hi Gunter,
In your Holy Grail tutorial you start by saying that you underexposed by a stop, to stop any blown highlights.
I am having issues with exactly this. I usually am shooting sunsets, with possibly cloudy skies, so its challenging anyway.
I am used to taking individual images, for photographs, and will use graduated filters to adjust for the contrast between sky & land, but in my test of time lapse sequences to date, I cannot stop the exposure adjustments being too harsh.
A few questions:
Do you recommend use of ND grad filters? and if so, when would you change them in relation to exposure/speed adjustments?
Do you usually make adjustments equivalent to 1 stop? Again, Im finding the skies blow out when I do this, and while I might blend images in P'Shop to correct this, I can't do that in L'Room.
What are your suggestions on these points please? or anyone else too for that matter.
Thanks
Graham
