Jeff — thanks for your comments. One more question for you and it concerns Live View. When I rotate to Lv on the indicator, do I then push down on shutter button to activate the rear display? In testing yesterday (after watching your video) it seemed this approach worked and a similar depression of the shutter would turn it off. Or as you did, just rotate the mode dial off of Lv and back to Clow. Activation of Lv is not well explained in the manual.

Hi Paul, I’m glad you found the video to be useful. I shoot all of my HDR stuff in RAW so that I can get the most from the dynamic range of my images. Shooting in JPEG is very limiting in terms of exposure range whereas RAW has much more exposure information in the file.

This is a great video and it is has really helped me get set-up for HDR work. One of the settings that you didn’t mention in the video is whether you shoot in JPG or RAW mode. Is one better than the other when it comes to the post processing? Your comments would be appreciated.

[...] Setting up Your Camera for Shooting HDR Images I had a little spare time this weekend so I ventured off to the deep dark recesses of my backyard with my video camera in tow so I could shoot a little tutorial. I have spent a lot of time talking about processing HDR images but I’ve never really touch (tags: Photography) [...]
