I'm stuck in a thought rut. Working with my new D810 and processing in C1 Pro 10. I have always used "Linear Response" as a setting in the base characteristics when importing files. I'm noticing that when I do that, in spite of the levels showing on the camera at the time of exposure being correct (by that I mean fairly centered without clipping on either end), the curve in C1 is smashed against the left side. I have to add as much as one or two stops in the Exposure setting of C1 to spread the values across the entire spectrum where they belong.
I don't ever remember having to do that in the past with the D700. Okay, maybe a little, but not this much. What am I missing? Should I be adjusting the camera to override the meter and expose more? Or is it that the DR is so different that maybe Linear Response is not such a good idea.
I might be able to figure this out, but I'm being lazy and asking you who have gone before. By the way, I salute you!
Thanks!
