To delic: 1.3 stop

[kmarscher]

Hi Hakan--I used this setting to achieve these results quickly. I sometimes defer to that capability on my camera. Here, I found that a quick check at my LCD and histogram, showed some loss of tonal range, as you described. I was on a nature walk with a friend and conversation moved toward where we were going for dinner when I went under the tree branches (that surrounded this tree and reached to the ground)and saw this dramatic lighting. It was quite different from the landscape shots I was taking. I know I could have changed the aperture/speed to get these results, but I "cheated" so to speak by using the +/- exposure adjustment instead. So, I guess the honest answer is, hungry and didn't want to loose the shot. Thanks for asking and do you use this option too?
Regards,
Kathy
