High Dynamic Range photo software – Merge of exposures and Tone Mapping of HDR images
Even the best exposure can have washed out areas, or areas of deep shadow. In most cases, you can't avoid this – you just get the best exposure you can.
In others, however, you have a bit more flexibility – in those cases, if your camera supports it, you take a range of images (generally 3 or more) – one perfectly exposed, then more on either side – some over exposed, some under exposed. Then you blend the photos together, in theory making one image with a very wide range of exposure within it.
All well and good – but that can be a lot of hard photoshop work.
So, that's where this software comes in – it does the blending for you, you just provide the images.
There's a free trial available, but the software is a little expensive (in my opinion) for a one trick pony at $99.
Available for both Windows and OS X.
So – anyone know how if a Nikon D70 can do auto-exposure bracketing?
