      Sir Roger

      I’ve attended a workshop about Exposure, and the DP mentioned that he uses High ISO in the ALEXA when shooting in a bright daylight to protect the highlightsand add more stops above the mid grey.

      So that makes me wondering rather than using ISO 400 or lower, I should do the opposite to gain more stops of dynamic range for highlights.

      Do you recommend doing such a thing ?

      Thanks in advance.

        The ISO chosen (i.e. your exposure) determines the dynamic range captured, not the recording format if it’s LogC versus Arriraw.

          Thanks David,

          I notice that I fail to explain myself properly and only confuse people.
