For the record Jim, I do not shoot in controlled conditions but use the varying natural light like you. I do not use a studio and only occassionally shoot indoors. You are right about having little time to take readings or make adjustments in the field as editorial photography is also very fast moving at times. Bracketing is one of the tools I use for exposure. I am interested in the Capture One software you are using and will have a look at it sometime soon. I have been playing with custom tone curves lately and have saved one to the camera which is great for evening out high contrast lighting. I used it today to shoot the truck interiors and engine areas with full sun in the backgound. Did a good job.
