[richard-lists at imagecraft.com (Richard)]

According to the blurb on the M8 sensor, some sort saturation mode kicks 
in, to lop off the booming highlight to somewhat more reasonable.

Yes, but but setting exposure compensation to -1 stop I don't get ANY 
burned-out highlights.  The fact remains that the DMR does not follow the 
rule-of-thumb, if there is one, that digital is as unforgiving of exposure 
errors as slide film.  I do not find that to be true with the DMR.
