Managing extreme dynamic range with multiple exposures?

2005-11-23 Thread Glen
I know there is a technique for shooting stationary subjects with huge dynamic range, by taking a few bracketed exposures and combining those bracketed exposures into a single image. Can anyone point me to an on-line tutorial that explains the best way to do this? I want to try this on some

Rob, pg 84 step 3, in the manual, makes no mention of exposure compensation for multiple exposures. In the MZ-S and the PZ1P, which also have multiple exposure capabilities, there is no mention about exposure compensation for multiple exposures either and if you simply shoot multiples

I believe that the way the *ist D handles multiple exposures is entirely different from film. We're all discussing how it should be calculating 1/2 the exposure for the first shot and the other 1/2 the exposure for the second shot . . . . . . what if the *ist D is a far more simple beast

I am trying to figure out the best way to take multiple exposures quickly. When I use the multiple exposure option it basically disables the consecutive photograph option. If I have to press the shutter release for each exposure it will take longer than I have. Anyone have any ideas? Nick
