Thanks very much, I appreciate the feedback!
]]>Thanks for the response! I’ll usually set the focus using auto, flick the switch to manual, and then fire off my brackets, but I never seem to get this level of detail. I usually trust the camera’s autofocus, although it seems like that might not be such a good idea as you seem to get perfect metering. As far as post goes, i’ll occasionally sharpen in PS, but again, don’t get the same effects as you do.
Thanks for the help, and checking out my blog.
]]>Hey Matt! Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it! I guess the sharpness all starts in camera using LiveView and manual focus. The ability to zoom in 10x and really tweak the focus is key…I also find that leaving the camera in AF for HDR shots can sometimes lead to slight focus changes between frames which can decrease the sharpness as well. As for post, after tonemapping in Photomatix I cranked up the contrast and clarity in Lightroom and applied a reasonable amount of sharpening. Hope that helps!
P.S. I’m really enjoying your blog!
