The RAW Converter that extends the photographers creativity

Here are a few examples of situations in which extra exposure latitude helps beyond shooting in low light.

Shooting against the sun without a flash gets more than silhouettes

Because of the new recovery potential of deep shadows, images shot against the sun still retain information that post processing can bring back. Combining highlight recovery with dxo lighting, silhouettes become portraits again.

Indoors action photography is in fact not an oxymoron

Whether it is sports photographers shooting indoors (or night) events or family photography where a flash would break the atmosphere, photographers can now both freeze the action and avoid camera shake thanks to the very usable high ISO settings.

Absence of flash or empty batteries do not equate to missed opportunity

Getting two or three extra stops of sensitivity will generally be the difference between shooting images and being a spectator.

Low light digital photography does not imply unsightly pixel structures in large prints

Unlike film which retained a natural (albeit very visible) grain in low light conditions, digital photography introduced a very recognizable "digital grain" but thanks to recent advances in raw conversion, even in extreme conditions, the texture of a digital image can remain soft and natural looking.

Tonal range does not fall when light does

The subtle gradations photographers love to capture on faces does not have to turn into noisy bands of shades because at high ISO, very few tones can be distinguished above the noise. Higher tonal range, even in low light means natural looking volumes, with realistic shading and nuances.

Handholding macro can coexist with extra depth of field

Macro photography used to imply using a tripod to get the depth of field necessary at short range. Trading a tripod for higher ISO now means chasing an insect can mean more than waiting for the animal to take the bait and come into the frame.
