I’m fairly new to digital. I recently purchased a 645D and have discovered that a sensor’s response to over exposure is quite different from that for film. I‘ve attached an image taken with the 645D. Film would have likely yielded an acceptable image of the overexposed sun, but the digital image is very unappealing with an irregular pattern of pure white. I tried opening the file in ACR twice and pasting different exposure settings - somewhat helpful, but there’s nothing to be recovered in some areas. How should I handle a situation like this in the future? This was handheld and a tripod would not have been very practical, so multiple exposures would have been difficult. Thanks for any advice.
