This also depends on the type of photography.
Yes, you can replace 'overdone ZoneSystem' with 'overusing of bracketing'. I
guess it's the difference between 'knowing' and trial-and-error. With 'fast'
photography, bracketing might actually be the more effective approach.
However, in landscape, architecture and model photography, I leave the
experimenting to composing images. I don't take chances with exposure and
development. There the ZoneSystem offers the most organized approach. BTW,
with model photography, backeting doesn't work very well. That type of
photography lives from the special moment.
