![]() ![]() Exposure Fusion can be summarized by its key features, namely: These parameters can always be changed by the user. Batch Processing makes use of these parameters, and saves the file on exit from the application and restored at the next start. In the app’s window, users have the flexibility of selecting the source and destination directories of their choice number of images in each merge input and output file types method of processing. More so, Fusion’s Batch Processing allows for the processing of a series of images in “auto mode” by helping to apply the same parameters to each photo merge. One of which is the “exposure-merging and processing options” the app offers users the choice of employing either HDR or Summation approach. The app also permits the processing of a single photo in JPEG, TIFF or RAW formats.Įxposure Fusion highlights a few more options that are not found in a number of its contemporary. As is the case with most High Dynamic Range soft, best results are attained when you process multiple images taken at the same scene but of different light exposures. It gives users the flexibility of enhancing image details as well as the local contrast in a remarkable manner. For the purpose of our discussion, we shall be examining Exposure Fusion its best alternative, Aurora HDR, and the features that qualify Aurora to stand tall among others. Some notable HDR apps include Exposure Fusion, Photomatix, EasyHDR and Aurora HDR. Having been in existence for quite some time now, in different forms, fragments and names, HDR only became officially so called less than two decades ago, and has since being undergoing series of improvements and upgrades. The manual technique earlier described later got well-known, and is popularly referred to as manual blending or the “extended dynamic range technique” (XDR). So in a way, we could say that the HDR technology has long been in existence ever before its official announcement. ![]() By so doing, they had absolute control over highlights and shadows, and could restore the appropriate detail that was lacking in the result. The images were then blended using the software’s Layer Masks.ĭuring the blending, they decided which of the photos to use for each region of their resultant image. These several photos which they opened constituted of several images of the same scene but having different light exposure values. What they did, and still do, was to have several photos opened in a photo editing environment like Photoshop or FX Photo Studio (Skylum Creative Kit). Judging by the trend and chain of evolution in photography, it’s no doubt that the “High Dynamic Range” technique (also known as HDR) has indeed come to stay.įrom the beginning stages of digital photography, ever before the concept of HDR technology was eventually discovered, photographers and digital artists were already making remarkable progress with digital photo enhancement in an incredible manner. ![]()
