Produce True HDR video from any camera - NEX5N sample

Here's the type/approach I'm going to take on this version of my DIY beam splitter:

Nice! I know a lot of people don't think this is practical, but for me, I think about it for really wide establishing shots where it's really hard to control the dynamic range of the entire city you are shooting! :) For those shots, this is just a really great way to get a really nice shot and have a lot of freedom in post to push the city detail around like you want. (Or the beach, or any really large photo where it is impossible to pull in the dynamic range and you don't want to mess with graduated NDs or anything).

This is exactly my thought. I don't think that lugging this around for EVERY shot would be fun (or valuable). But there are some wide shots that would REALLY benefit. This is one reason why I'd say that the GH2 might be a good match. That cam excels on wide shots for sure....and added DR is something it could benefit from it seems. Anywho....glad I'm not the only crazy one. Seems you're crazy too Rick! :) Cheers!
