you go out and set up excessive amounts of lighting gear and reflectors and so on to work around this kind of issue? Sure you can. But given a choice, wouldn\'t you rather be able to have clean shadows to begin with? Can anyone honestly say they think it is better to deal with the hassle and the extra time spent hauling out and setting up a bunch of extra gear just to get the same kind of image you could get with another camera without any extra gear.
um tell this to the motion picture industry,it works the same for stills why would lighting not be the same? they put the light where its needed so ...
yeah and they take all day to setup a 5 minute scene and of staff to trek equipment all over with them and I\'d like to see you (or even them) light a broad landscape expanse covering a couple hundred acres, instantly, on the spot when you suddenly come across an awesome shot whre the interesting light/etc. only lasts a few minutes. they carefully shoot only what they can shoot and what they can make work out. and yeah you can shoot what you can shoot for stills and make stunning photos of this or that, but it does restrict you from being able to shoot as many things as you might if you had more DR
