Anyone interested using tonemapping? It is very easy to do have got the right software... I use Photoshop CS5 for RAW conversions however with Photomatix Pro for the quality HDR(1) generating and tonemapping.
You can generate HDR within a exposed photo but I discovered it best to a more happy camera on tripod and get at least three shots using AEB(2) if your camera has it, what you desire for is underexposed shot to restore details in the lighter areas, 'perfect' exposure for midtones which overexposure for details along with this darker areas. If there isn't a tripod don't worry as it possibly can fake it with ORGANIC conversion... i. e affect the exposure value before in essence you open the RAW paper, do this three times and save where did they your desktop, open Photomatix and click on HDR tab on unit bar, then click where it says generate and will then ask you to perform load images, browse to desktop and choose your saved images, please click ok.
Photomatix will then attain another box to to set images, again click safe, wait for the script to take its magic and you will be presented with the complicated looking image ever!!!! Have no fear brave cameraists this is HDR in every one its raw glory, you also will discover a HDR viewer so while you scroll around the disaster scene you'll discover lots of detail with the viewer but not the more expensive picture (seems ironic to my advice lol).
OK now we'd normally bin this image as unusable so now comes the magic part... tonemapping! Hit HDR cyberspace toolbox and in the dropdown menu come across tonemap or hit ctrl+t, then more computing magic and you're simply presented with a measurably better looking image... play around on your strength and luminosity etc take pleasure in it!!! If anyone found this remotely interesting i am quite prepared in order to maintain... let me know; o) HDR(1) and High Dynamic Range. Is actually a feature in Photoshop CS2 ' Photomatix or FDRTools. One way to 'digitally develop' your the pictures using tonal information confined in multiple exposures of the same shot.
AEB(2)- Auto Reputation Bracketing; simple automated technique professional photographers use and have properly expose their snapshots, especially in challenging lumination situations; taking two or even more pictures: one slightly under-exposed (usually by dialing in a negative exposure compensation, added -1/3EV), and the second you slightly over-exposed (usually by dialing they positive exposure compensation, added +1/3EV).
