Do you have any suggestions or preferences for shooting an HDR image?

 

[Brian Mosley]

Hi jfj2,

I personally shoot in burst mode - making sure that I'm not blowing highlights... then I run 6 or more raw images through PhotoAcute to get a noise free image - by adjusting levels in Lightzone, this gives very natural HDR results.

Here's an old example :

View attachment 140888

PhotoAcute works with a handheld burst of shots - so you don't need to use a tripod.

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Brian

bringing back the Menu

I'd PM'd Brian to ask him where I should post this... I had been wondering if there was a tip to bringing back the Menu to the page you were on when the LCD went to sleep...had tried a few things but they just brought me back to the Main Menu screen. Brian answered me

As for the menu after hitting sleep mode... that's the way it works. You could extend the Sleep timer (Cog menu D->SLEEP->?MIN)... it's at 01:08 in Part 3.

So I am posting it here for the other clueless folks.:smile:

Re: Photoacute

Brian,

Photoacute is a very interesting product...does it work with legacy lenses as well?

Thanks,
Tom
