I figure if I capture a gradient which goes almost to zero, I can then adjust it (I use Curves) to precisely control just how much gets blown out ... I can always get rid of detail later, but if it's never captured by the camera, there's no (easy) way to put it back. I like to keep as many options open as I can. I'm also used to working with somewhat limited equipment with less precise control of exposure, and I try to allow for that too. |
