I take a photo with my iPhone in night conditions and the image I see on the screen comes out way darker than I saw with my eyes. That has to be corrected for, no?
- ggg9990 9y agoYes, but if you take a photo with a Sony A7s it will vastly outperform your eye.
- fermienrico 9y agoNo. The term we need to introduce here is "Dynamic Range". It is pointless to say "Sony A7s can vastly outperform the eye" where it could have been set for a low light exposure. Human eye has an amazing dynamic range - I don't know the exact number today, but last time I checked was like 3 years ago and the cameras at the time (D800) were not even close to human dynamic range.
- joefourier 9y agoThat's because you're comparing a single exposure from a digital camera. You can have dynamic range far in excess of the human eye with HDR techniques, by combining difference exposures and/or by exposing different pixels on the same image differently.
