martind86, before you run in the "BC in stubborn donkey mode" trap, like many of us did before, you need to know: his world view of subjects like "equivalence" or "more than 6.5 stops of dynmaic range are overkill" is rather limited and narrow, to put it mildly. You can save a lot of nerves and energy by not trying to show him another point of view as he likes to stick in his errors. But sometimes it's good to have a stubborn mind around.

Now, BC, you can report my post, run again to Admin Klaus and complain and wail around. It's amazing how a person with considerable knowledge decides to refuse other insights and ignores the obvious fact that there is more contrast in this world than a Canon sensor can master.
