Brett,
If you look through the terrestrial photography forum and do a search on HDR and my username, you will see that I used to post lots and lots of HDR imagery.
I then realised the mistake I was making and climbed out of the novelty hole. I haven't looked back since.
It's the single greatest way to destroy hard earned, and hard thought out data capture.
Sooner or later, people realise that it doesn't do their photography any justice and move on.
Congratulations on the new lens. I have the first iteration of it. If that's anything to go by, and, the samples I've seen on the web of the Mark II, you are going to love it. It's sharper at f/2.8 than its older brother. And, that's saying something.

Your critique has taught me a lot of respect, for HDR. And not every HDR works, as I have learnt.
So I use it wisely (I still take the HDR that when I get around to processing it, but not publish it, unless it's right.)
I have the newish Canon L lens (70-200 2.8 II IS) coming, hopefully I'll get it Monday, so things are going to get interesting.
Photomatix for me. I do use PS CS5 on the odd chance. |
