Now: I have no idea why I used to think that it was better to feed Photomatix the originl RAW file... tonight I tried converting the RAW NEF into a TIF and then feed the TIF to Photomatix. I was amazed: the results are slightly brighter, with better colour and, above all, with much less noise. Noise is stll there, but way less!
So I guess, from now on, the TIF passage will be a must.
The only hard part will become, as usual, choosing between the original, color HDR and B&W HDR ... In this case I like them all... any suggestions?
