Regarding that first image of Ford walking across from the movie theater . . . The rendering of the background -- the movie theater -- is perfect.

When I was actually watched that scene on the screen, I was able to see good shadow detail on the pillars and on Ford without the movie theater background blooming. When I take the photograph, however, it blooms the background. If I adjust the exposure it darkens the detail. With my camera, there's no way to win. Yours looks a lot better than mine, though.
Thanks Ric-- yeah, that scene is very hard to get correct. I could increase the exposure a bit to get a bit more low level detail in the trenchcoat and the pillars, but then I start to get a bit of "white crush" in the steam cloud next to the fire hydrant. Close but no cigar...

Thanks!

Shooting in RAW is really versatile and more forgiving; after you get used to it, you'll never shoot in JPG again...

Default Reshot

I reshot the Blade Runner scene reducing the exposure and highlighting the shadow detail some. This is pretty close to what I'm seeing on the screen, except that the detail on the pillars is still not quite right and Ford looks a little washed out. The background looks fairly close. This screenshot is a lot more accurate that the previous one I posted.

Updated (more accurate):

Run Lola Run

A bit of a soft look to it, and a little inferior to the HDnet, but a good viewing regardless.
