Tone Equalizer: lifting shadows from -15 EV

Good advice!

Couple more questions on recovery of blown highlights:

I’m running the latest daily version of DT 3.9.

  1. What is the strategy for using filmic 6 reconstruction? Do you turn off the highlight reconstruction modules and/or reduce the exposure to give room for contrast?

Presumably first step in the filmic module is to set the threshold to pick out the blown areas (normally just under 0 for me) ThenI just go down the sliders to see which slider produces a good effect on the blow areas.

  1. Going back to highlight reconstruction, has anyone worked out a plan to optimise use of Aurelien’s guided laplacian option?
