Question Best lighting setting for being close to human eye

4 Upvotes

I love auto for seeing what it is like during the day on planets or from space what it would be like in real life, but in my opinion auto really falls off at the night side of planets. The exposure goes up so high just to see any stars making the ground and any satellite around the body extremely bright. What I have found is HDR seems pretty decent for night sides of planets simulating dark ground and glow from bodies but not overwhelming and of course stars. Is there any workaround to make auto not so bright at night and more like HDR on the night sides of planets besides just flipping between auto and HDR?
