Landscapes don\'t move so are easily shot with brackets if need be.


I guess rivers, the ocean, clouds etc dont constitute \"landscape\"


A bracket of three, even five shots can take less than a second. So no.

Edit: wow, Howard and Retrofocus just jumped on that, they really mean business today \"kill the heretic, the unbeliever\"


You don\'t always have the luxury of extremely fast shutter speeds when bracketing.


No, sometimes it can take several seconds, which clearly would be an utter disaster for you

If the exposure is long enough to show movement then the fact that you are bracketing doesn\'t matter anyway.


I hope you are not arguing that bracketing solves all problems with limited DR.

We are not arguing that bracketing is not a valid workaround under some circumstances. Let me make it clear: I agree it is a valid workaround under some circumstances.

But we are saying that bracketing does not apply in all cases.

For example:
Civil war fortress, flag flapping in the wind. Nice sunset in background. Foreground dark. I want the flag to be sharp (the rippling shape will convey the sense of motion). Take a picture with high shutter speed to freeze motion. Sky properly exposed, foreground too dark. How do you suggest I bracket in this case?
(there are many other cases, this is but one example)


There are any number of things you could do, you could bracket around the appropriate shutter speed and just clone the flag in in post, you could do a couple of RAW conversions at different densities and combine them, there are other options.
