Hey, well if you have a tripod, aperture-adjustable camera, and Photoshop CS here's what you can do with it. Take the same picture 5-7 times with a different F-stop setting (like -2.0 thru 2.0 or something), and use Photoshop to combine them to form a high dynamic range picture. That way it'll capture all the details with very high contrast. Then what you need to do is convert it back to 8-bit RGB (in the menu), and then select local adaptation (I think that's what worked best for me). My results were very good with this, but it might be too tedious if you're taking a lot of pictures. If you don't have PS CS then you can do it with other programs if you want. But if you just want a darned picture, try lowering F-stop. I look forward to the review though. :thumbsup:
