Hi Richard, if you're reading this, I always appreciate your contributions :) Thanks!

They're going to blow that case wide open...

Thanks a lot, DPR, for the lousy 4k/15p video on the X-T100! >:(

Or, underexpose to preserve more highlights if you have a modern sensor that sufficiently preserves shadow details. But in either case you have to make an educated guess about where (& how much of)...

Roland, my bad. It's clear you know what you're talking about. My point (that I didn't make) was that ETTR doesn't always mean increasing the exposure; if you have many bright highlights in a...

@photomikeleth there's no problem with calling it ISO; that's what it is. But as an educator, you should understand how it differs from film ISO, and what its limitations are in getting optimal...

"And, as sensors improve, it stands to reason that it will be even less necessary to expose all the way to the right."

It also stands to reason that more advanced sensors benefit MORE from ETTR,...

A few, but we still lack replacement vocabulary for others.

Roland, I'm not sure ETTR means what you think it means...

You don't want to do the research: true
You are happy with the status quo: true
Focus on established ISO warps camera development: also true

These are not mutually exclusive.

And yeah, probably...

LOVE the clickable endnotes. Never noticed that before :) Thanks!

(Also, learned new vocabulary: "inverted commas")

Great shots.

😂

anticipation_of, I've really been appreciating your insightful comments lately. You always seem to have something reasonable and constructive to add to the discussion :) Cheers

Who remembers Nikon's "BIG" event promo several years ago? People speculated they were going MF (MX). But instead...

I guess green accents are the trend for 2018 :)

Even better—a circular sensor :)
