![]() ![]() ![]() EasyHDR has a list of presets but no preview for the list to see a sample of the results. After a few minutes of playing around with the alignment tool again I was able to get EasyHDR to align the image correctly.Īfter getting the image aligned I proceeded to tone map the image. So I ended up saving the file to take a look at it in Photoshop… and sure enough I was right, it wasn’t aligned properly. ![]() Trying to zoom in on the preview window is almost pointless as it’s slower than I have patients for. (Anytime I don’t have to click a button to get somewhere I’m suppose to be, I like!) Once I get to the tone mapping menu I noticed that the alignment of my image is off in the preview area. Of course this could be me and my lack of knowledge about this particular HDR program, but I promise you I did try to find an easier way.Īfter clicking the generate HDR button, I am taken to the tone mapping window automatically, which I like. Now in my opinion that’s very inconvenient. Something else frustrating about the program is that I have to remove my current exposure just to do a new set of exposures. I’m guessing easyHDR assumes I’ll be doing something else other than tone mapping my photo. I also didn’t like that I have to click another button after I align my photo to get to the tone mapping window. I’ll be honest, the easyHDR alignment window is a little awkward, but the other two HDR programs, Artizen HDR and DynamicPhoto HDR, were the same way. The reason I find easyHDR’s alignment window frustrating is the lack of intuitive controls, even the manual aligment option was hard to understand. Once the exposures have been loaded a window will automatically pop-up allowing you to align the images. This is easily done by going to the number one tab and clicking the open button. But it’s not without fault, I still feel that EasyHDR could simplify it’s process to make tone mapping and creating HDR images easier.ĮasyHDR has a straight forward user interface, to proceed making an HDR image you’ll need to load your exposures. What makes it great is like the name implies, it’s easy. So far it’s my favorite out of the three high dynamic range programs that I’ve tested. Photomatix is the only package that captured the details on the daylight lit moon down to the nightime shadows under the bridge.Posted Febru– easyHDR is the third HDR software on the list to be reviewed by Captain Kimo. It also has a batch capability which is used a lot for large numbers of HDR sequences taken out in the noon day sun! The 32 bit exr files are saved for post processing the really interesting images. It has a user assisted ghost removal tool than is handy and used frequently. ![]() The fourth method is Exposure Fusion used predominantly for commercial real estate work. Tone Compressor produces deep rich colors and a more natural looking images. Contast Optimizer produces very natural looking HDR images. The detail Enhancer method is the one that most people associate with HDR. It has four different tone mapping methods used to produce different looks. While some use EasyHDR and Aurora for the majority of work, they use Photomatix for really tough images and commercial real estate work. Photomatix is the gorilla in the HDR space all others are compared to. It is one of the oldest dedicated HDR softwares. ![]()
