Merge differently exposed photos into one
image with details in both highlights and
shadows . Blend exposures hassle-free
. Generate HDR images from multiple
exposures
. Process HDR images with powerful Tone
Mapping tool

HDR / Tone Mapping
- Generation of HDR (High Dynamic Range)
images from differently exposed images .
Option for automatic image alignment
. Reading of exposure information from
Exif data.
. Source images can be either 8
bits/channel or 16 bits/channel image
files.
. In Batch Processing, source images can
be RAW files from Canon, Nikon, Fuji,
Sony, Olympus, Pentax and Panasonic.
. In the case of RAW files, White Balance
and output color space can be adjusted

- Tone Mapping tool for revealing
highlights and shadows details in HDR
image . Two tone mapping methods
available: Details Enhancer, based on a
local operator, and Tone Compressor,
based on a global operator.
. Preview enabling to adjust the
following settings for Details Enhancer:
Strength, Color Saturation, Light
Smoothing, Luminosity, Micro-contrast,
Micro-smoothing and Black and White
Clipping. For Tone Compressor the
settings are: Brightness, Tonal Range
Compression, Contrast Adaptation and
Black and White Clipping.
. Settings can be saved to and loaded
from XMP files
. Bit-depth of output image can be either
8 or 16 bits per color channel
. Ability to zoom the preview to get a
100% crop.
. Option for different preview sizes
. In the case of Details Enhancer, input
image can also be a 16 bits/channel image
file.
. Option for output as equirectangular
image set to be viewed in a 360 degree
panorama viewer in the case of Details
Enhancer.

- HDR Viewer shows local HDR image data
at the appropriate exposure
- Display of HDR Histogram (logarithmic)
- Ability to batch tone map single HDR
images.
- Function to tone map large HDR image
files while benefiting from a preview.
- Read and Write support for Radiance
RGBE (.hdr), OpenEXR (.exr) and Floating
Point TIFF


Exposure Blending (Combining
differently exposed images)
- Five algorithms for Exposure Blending:
Highlights & Shadows - 2 images,
Highlights & Shadows - Auto, Highlights &
Shadows - Adjust, Highlights & Shadows -
Light and Highlights & Shadows - Enhanced
- Built-in automatic alignment option for
out-of-register images
- Semi-manual alignment tool for
difficult cases
- Averaging (also known as Image
Stacking)
- Merges any number of differently
exposed images (except method Highlights
& Shadows - 2 images)
- Adjustment of radius and blending point
settings (method Highlights & Shadows -
Adjust)
- 16-bit support (except methods
Highlights & Shadows - Light and
Highlights & Shadows - Enhanced )


Automatic Batch Processing
- Automatically loads and processes
images of the specified input location,
and saves resulting images to the
specified output location
- Option for automatic image alignement.
- Works for HDRI generation, Tone Mapping
and all combination modes
- Access to all Tone Mapping settings, as
well as loading the settings from XMP
files and saving them.
- Ability to set the Exposure Value
spacing for HDR Image generation
- Processes all sets of bracketed images
stored under a given folder (number of
bracketed images in each set specified by
user before running the batch)
- Ability to select only specific files
for processing
- Ability to process all sub-folders of a
given folder, combining all image files
stored under each sub-folder
- Option for short file names for the
resulting images.
- Report lists the actions performed as
they are processed and the error status


General
- Support of the following image file
formats: JPEG (read & write), TIFF
24-bit, 48-bit and Floating Point (read &
write), Radiance RGBE (read & write),
OpenEXR (read & write), BMP (Mac version:
read only, Windows version: read &
write), PNG (Mac version: read & write),
PSD (read only)
- 48-bit compression tool: enhances
shadows details of a 16 bits/channel
image file
- Basic image operation tools . Cropping
(also works with HDR images)
. Resizing
. Rotating (also works with HDR images)
. Sharpening
. Brightness & Contrast
. Remapping of mirror ball (also works
with HDR images)
