Try to save the highlights off a 2 stop overexposed slide some

Tell you what. I'll simply win the lottery next weekend and then I'll
invite you all over for a shoot-out in front of the Seraing coking

so you'll see for yourselves.
Nothing like some good practical experience. :-)
Sounds good to me. Now I need to find funding for the travel

BTW, I agree with Bill's comment. If diffraction stars are a problem,
you're working at a lens opening which is too small and should open
up. It's weird, but sometimes I find a need to add an ND filter for
high contrast, dimly lit scenes ...
