Morgähn  ;D Zf & Voigtländer 28mm f/2.0

The whole Viogtländer Series is an act of genious. I really dig the handling (esp on the Zf) and the rendering

From a YouTube video it was asserted with samples that Active D-Light Off and Low are virtually identical. I don't shoot JPG(s) in camera only NEF so I don't need Active D-Lighting in camera for stills.

It seems Active D-Lighting may be important to video where I shoot basically home videos that won't be post processed.

Thanks for all the replies.

I find ADL very useful when videographing people moving across locations with completely uncontrolled lighting conditions, it opens up faces against backgrounds that may be brighter in a non-tone-mapped representation. It works quite well for making scene contrast lower yet keeping the subject well defined. I use it typically in NORMAL setting.

In stills I sometimes apply DL of some sort in post-processing, e.g., when photographing trees against the sun in the backgroud it works well and mitigates the excessive contrast in the scene. However, I only use it for specific situations. There are other algorithms and methods for this but sometimes Nikon's algorithm works really well and is the easiest path forward.

In Tokyo, it will be a little colder again this week, but the magnolias look well ready to bloom.
