How to get the best raw exposure, part 2

I did test the a6300, and the in-camera histogram worked the same as the other Sony cameras I tested.

Of course. Among other things, that's the difference between science and engineering, although I would not use the word "balancing". The science you use is the science you use. What you do with that knowledge is up to you.

Well, here is from one of raw files Donald posted for everyone to see:

It shows clipping when there is none in raw. Raw highlight inspection tells that there is plenty of details in highlight to work with:

for everyone that missed this post

i dont want to embarris you and actually post that image in FRV. nice job you did to fake the histogram

Stop with that already. Everyone can check the raw file and see you are wrong in your accusation.

And how different are those raw histograms? Scale tricks you?

The last image in that series is of a photo in Phocus preceded by: "But when we turn the clipping warning on, some of the flowers are tinged in purple". Unfortunately, there's no way for the reader to know what the highlight warning indicates because you don't say what threshold setting is being used. The screen shot would be more useful if the highlight / shadow warning tool was included to show what the warning is actually indicating is clipped or if that information was included in your text.

Yes it does … there’s speed limits 😂 The point is you need to know the science/facts. But again, we are saying the same things, worded differently.

Back to this photography topic. If eeking out maximum performance from your sensor is your PRIMARY objective this thread educates those that want to do it but didn’t know how to.

We've also considered alternative strategy’s for those who want to work fast in dynamic changing lighting where eeking out the maximum IQ from your sensor becomes a SECONDARY objective.

There’s no right or wrong here.

I used the default settings:

Thanks. That's useful to know.

What are you waffling on about?

You plagiarise someone else's work, fake your images and you have altered some of my posts in your quotes of them.

No wonder no-one takes you seriously.

You have only yourself to blame.

This is the discovery, your histogram is RGB mine are not using live histogram. has your camera just luminosity live histogram ? and if it does ,does it match the rgb ?

If you cant be part of a sensible conversation with members please dont post childish comments it only ruins the vibe for everyone else.
its why we need a threaded view, so we dont have to read your drivel.

The X2D doesn't have a live histogram. It computes the review histogram from the JPEG preview image, just like the Sony cameras do for live histo and review histo.

By the way, this is a serous omission which I hope will soon be fixed. The GFX 100S has a live RGB histogram.

And yet you can't post anything that proves what I posted about you is not true 😄

Maybe he should get some lessons from his daughter or get her to proof read his posts or better yet, write them for him.
