That is where I would disagree. Would you expose the same for a very black 
face as you would for a Noh actor in whiteface?

It depends on where you want detail. If it's everywhere, incident will 
replicate the visual conditions as much as possible. But for particular 
subjects, you may wish to make sure you capture the detail in the bright or 
dark portions.
