To decide if you want to use a ND gradient just spot meter on dark
portion of scene then spot meter on bright portion of scene. If the
difference is too great then you want to use a ND gradient.
The Hi & Shadow just provide a quick way to alter the selected speed for
the given meter readings. Rather than twist the exposure compensation
dial press the desired button.
