I decided to play with my new camera this morning after work. Still getting used to it.

I find lowering the "dynamic range" settings to the lowest setting or OFF helps reduce noise in the shadows. Deal with shadows in post later if needed.
Good advice. I was using it to catch the American and Pow Mia flags against the sun earlier in the day and forgot to turn it off. I am loving this camera though lol.Quote:

Is that image straight out of the camera?
That it is. Uploaded though photo bucket but not modified in any way.Quote:

Do you know how it works? I'm thinking it shoots RAW and does the tone maping in camera.
Actually it doesn't have raw capability. That was just a quick shot left in intelligent mode. Here are the specs. https://docs.sony.com/release/specs/DSCHX1_mksp.pdf
If it was HDR the tree would most likely be lighter/have more visible detail. But that is different than DR - I believe dynamic range boosts ISO to get more details out of the darker spots in the photo as oppose to multiple exposures. As for noise, you might also try setting it to M (manual mode - if it has it) and then turning the ISO down and the shutter speed slightly to compensate.
That's exactly what I'm playing around with now actually lol. I'm pretty much just taking my time and giving myself another crash course with this thing.Quote:

Finally. She's got a garage. No more bird shit to wake up to and worrying about hail! So much room for activities!

Nice! Be forewarned, room for activities can quickly spiral out of control. ;-)Quote:

Just finished mowing... kinda dirty but I still like it
What's the story with those wheels? Are they temps or are they your new daily set?Quote:

Gotcha. I wasn't aware that you had them, so it caught me by surprise!Quote:
