Top  Previous  Next

The final step is to use Process Button to apply the tone-mapping on a full resolution image.

 

You can choose the export format:

Standard RGB image: JPG, PNG, BMP, TIF, Targa
16 bit format - TIFF
Layered PSD format

 

Layered Adobe Photoshop format

This special case can create a layered format where the background layer will be the original image before tone-mapping and top layer will be the tone-mapped result.The images will be already aligned so you can use layer editing tools in Adobe Photoshop to adjust the image (for example use Eraser to tone down parts of the image or use Layer transparency to adjust the whole image)

Simple file: this create single layer PSD file with the Tone-Mapped result

With Original 0EV: The bottom layer is an original source  0EV (or closest to 0EV) image, either JPG or an 8 bit translated RAW file. The top layer is the Tone-Mapped result. This option require that the sources of the HDR file are known (that is the HDR file was created in this session from source JPG or RAW files)

With HDR data 0EV: The bottom layer will be created from the HDR data using 0EV exposure, the top layer will be the Tone-Mapped result. This option doesn't need to know the JPG/RAW sources of the HDR file.

 

Depending on the input data, the option that are not valid will be disabled.
