Dealing with High Contrast Scenes in Fujifilm Cameras

Better Fuji Photos Episode 25: Dealing with High-Contrast Scenes in Fujifilm Cameras When the scene you're photographing has a lot of contrast - the entire range of tones from really dark shadows to really bright highlights - there are two standard ways of dealing with it: 1) Accept it, or 2) create an exposure bracket and blend an HDR image. What if you don't want that much contrast, but blending an HDR is out of the question? This episode will cover ways of dealing with high-contrast scenes in Fujifilm cameras for both RAW and JPEG photographers. For RAW photographers: Ensure you're using the "flat" display option without your image quality settings (Natural Live View On or Preview Pic Effect Off) Expose to the right utilizing the large histogram and Live View Highlight Alert For JPEG photographers: Use a film simulation without too much contrast Utilize the Dynamic Range setting Adjust your Highlight & Shadow tone curve There's also an in-camera HDR option, if nothing is moving in your frame Links mentioned in this episode: Corresponding High-Contrast Photography article: https://www.jmpeltier.com/dealing-with-high-contrast-scenes-fujifilm/ Article - Fujifilm Dynamic Range Settings: https://www.jmpeltier.com/fujifilm-dynamic-range-settings/ Fujifilm Photographer Membership: ⁠⁠https://photocourses.link/fujimembers⁠⁠.
