I have searched some old threads about hdr on the forum and haven't seen any too recent or from people employing it for large format.
I shoot 8x10 primarily and I imagine it wouldn't be practical there because trying to work with three or four 800 meg 16bit rgb images would grind my dual quad core to a halt plus the cost of 8x10 trannie's wouldn't be much fun either.
I still have my 4x5 and I photograph in the swamps of Florida under very difficult lighting conditions. So I was thinking it may be worth trying.
I scan with a Creo IQ 2 which offers lot's of range but I am still looking for more.
I have seen some very nasty looking images done with hdr and thats not what I am going for. I am looking to use it for more a subtle effect.
So are any of you employing this method or do you know of any well done examples out there? Please share some images if you have any.
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
