easyHDR

Are you tired of your digital photos not capturing what you saw with your own eyes? Say no more with easyHDR. This image processing software will help you produce and tone map high dynamic range (HDR) images, even if they were taken in difficult lighting conditions.

To create an HDR image, easyHDR works with a sequence of photos taken with your camera at different exposure settings, where exposure time, ISO, and aperture vary. The resulting HDR image, also known as an HDR radiance map, needs to be tone mapped to be displayed on a screen or printed. EasyHDR can handle TIFFs, JPEGs, and almost all RAW image formats thanks to its built-in RAW converter. Plus, it can correct lens distortion and chromatic aberration.

If you took the photos hand-held, easyHDR has an automated alignment option to fix any shift, rotation, or perspective misalignment. Plus, a semi-automatic ghost removal tool can eliminate or repair any moving objects that might spoil your HDR photos.

EasyHDR also offers a lot of flexibility when tone mapping your HDR image. You can use layers and apply different settings to various parts of your image, thanks to the mask painting gradient tool. EasyHDR also guides you through the process of generating and tone mapping your HDR image, and options like editing history, undo/redo, and before/after comparisons make working with it fun.

And if you have a lot of photos to process, easyHDR has a batch processing option. Just create your task list, choose your settings, and wait for the results. For Adobe Lightroom users, there is a special plug-in that allows direct export of photos from Lightroom to easyHDR for processing and automatic import of the result back to Lightroom's catalog.

In short, easyHDR is a versatile and user-friendly software that can help you get the most out of your digital photos. Say goodbye to unwanted over- and underexposures and get your pictures closer to what you saw with your own eyes.
