Actually, this picture illustrates the problem with HDR the review sites were talking about. From the AnandTech review:I see reviews that say the m8 can't handle scenes with high dynamic range. I wonder if they used the hdr mode? This didn't come out good in auto mode (either the sky was blown out or the foreground was too dark,depending on where I focused) but in hdr mode it looks pretty good.
anandtech.com said:The multi-exposure HDR still produces blown out highlights in bright scenes, somewhat defeating the point of HDR photography to begin with.
If you look in the upper right-hand corner of the picture, the clouds are over-exposed to the point of being washed out. Hopefully a software update will be able to solve the problem.
