André Krajnik (Website | Blog | Facebook, Instagram) sent me this article about a “pseudo-HDR” technique he uses quite often: putting several almost identical images in one file, each as a separate layer and using layer-masks to make only certain parts of the different images visible. In this past, this technique was used for extending the dynamic range without HDR- or DRI- software. Nowadays this technique is still useful for landscape images when you want to show i.e. waves from more than one image.
I was told that Nikon will start a new rebates program in the US on Monday next week – a day before the new Nikon Z5 camera is announced.
Nikon is also preparing to release a new Z50 camera firmware update, but I am not sure if this will happen next week or at a later date.
