After seeing some of the other images in here, I'm a little ashamed to even post this. But here is my rough and dirty first test with dual ISO.
I was on a walk and there wasn't much catching my attention, but there was some wide DR between the setting sky and dark foreground. I took the opportunity to give it a whirl.

The only processing was some of RAW Therapee's auto highlight recovery, etc...

PS - @Akry, Great work with your 6D!

I'm a gig/event photographer experimenting with dual ISO.  It's been great in environments where there is such a strong contrast for things like stage lights and flash work.  A couple of examples.





edit: Adjusted picture sizes.

Not sure if this is a good candidate for Dual ISO, but I went for it anyway

Interesting combining flash with dual iso(second picture). Do you think the result would be different with regular raw in this case?

Third photo looks relly good. I like it a lot

The big win for event flash photography is getting more DR in the backgrounds.  Especially events like festivals where you notice that background lights colour channels cap out really quickly and everything just looks really smudged.  Dual ISO has helped me immensly shooting manual flash in a pinch in this environment too - my TTL flash was stolen a while back and I haven't been able to afford a replacement.

Most of the examples here seem to be scenes which makes sense.  We've all seen overexposed skies and can appreciate at a glance how big an improvement we are getting with Dual ISO.  I question why most people haven't really discovered it for portrait/event/performance/street style stuff where the loss of detail across the frame matters less and your RAW files has much more flexibility in what you get out of a shot that is just snapped 'in the moment.'

If there is one downside for me though, it's shooting an event (200-400 shots) and leaving them to brew overnight, ultimately costing me 60mb each shot.  Here I was thinking that buying a 6D would be a good move to preserve HDD space - hah!

Hi, can anyone post a sample of a high base iso image using this? High like ISO4000, and then compared to ISO4000/8000 maybe

a1ex

ISO 4000 is actually 3200 pushed, and sometimes 1600 pushed (so you lose highlights and you gain nothing in shadows). Between 3200 and 3200/6400, the winner will be 3200.

If your minimum ISO ends up greater than 400, do not use dual ISO. Even if the minimum ISO is 400 (as in 400/1600), think twice before using it. Stick to plain old ETTR instead.

Dual ISO is most effective at 100/800, 100/1600, 100/400 and maybe 200/1600.

(I should probably add this advice in the menu)

patiferoolz

thanks a1ex. do you know where i can find a list of native iso's for the 6d ?

@patiferoolz

not sure how accurate this is but its a step to what you are looking for, i use 320,640 or 1600 sometimes 3200, cleanest results iv had using them.

I don't use dual ISO all that much, but I didn't have a tripod with me for these first three:





60D, 8mm fisheye, dual ISO 100/1600


10 stop ND filter + dual ISO makes an 8 sec exposure directly into the sun possible:

1100D, Canon 10-22mm @ 10mm, f/14, ISO 100/1600, 8s
(the ND makes some strong color casts that are hard/impossible to rectify, I don't have the $$$ for a really nice one)

add an off camera flash on it's most powerful setting (which still wasn't enough):

1100D, Canon 10-22mm @ 10mm, f/4.5, ISO 100/1600, 2.5s

Two pictures exported with kithcehof plugin in lightroom. Dualiso, still amazing :)

I always use Photoshop CC with ACR.
In this picture I blurred the background to give the dog the attention they deserve.

A hawk family lives around my house and he often comes to the trees in and around the garden. Yesterday he was  eating a garden lizard and screaming at the top of his lungs. I guess he thought that it was tasty! Take a look. Personally, I'd pass ;)

Shot with 5D3 firmware 1.2.3

The first one was shot with a 100-200L @200mm, ISO 100/1600, F/8, 1/250
The second one was shot with a 100-400L @400mm with a 1.4x so @560mm, ISO 400/6400, F/8, 1/200
I left the exif on so you can see but imgur.com kills it :(.

I was shooting against the light. The sun is a little to the left of the bird.

here some shot i did with the dual-iso... seriouly it give a new life to my 7D








dualiso

dual iso is way better than bracketing, and it makes photos look better than the usual jpg. but take some time prosessing though. excellent new feature. nice colors. this is how images should come out from canon by default in jpgs.
