Nice and wide Hans. I'm pleased with mine as well. Alan's right with the whites but you will get better at that. The histogram will show you what you need to avoid it. For these types of photos, you should consider using Graduated Neutral Density filters. I use the Hitech-85 filters (.3 .6 .9) and they are super for getting detail in both foreground and sky. Here's a LINK to a good review. Not the cheapest thing to buy but always in my kit when and if I travel.I Shoot A Canon

My memory's not as sharp as it used to be.

I also use a wide zoom quite often. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I haven't used graduated neutral density filters, but find that careful exposure and lifting shadows usually work well. I also sometimes take a couple of exposures and manually merge them in post. I've rarely been happy with automated HDR shots.

I also use the bracketing method - esp with the phone, as grad NDs are not an option

All those methods work very well nowadays with cameras that can take high ISO images. Bracketing is really good and I have used that with indoor real estate photography. it's great for getting the outside window shots, usually 3 shots - 2 stops apart.

Not at all fond of HDR pictures if you can see it. I have used the bracketing. The Camera actually allows you to set it to take a preselected difference from center in three pictures. I ordered filters on ebay for $20 if I finish up using them more than twice in a year I shall get better ones. (If I feel the need).Better a full bottle in front of me
than a full frontal lobotomy.
