There is one thing irritating about Easy HDR’s preview window for the tone map tab, that is I can’t pan around the photo using my mouse. It’s limited but it works well along side the other tone mapping options available. This feature allows me to adjust my highlights darker or my shadows brighter. The one feature I like that easyHDR has is the Mask option, which is the last adjustment at the bottom of in the tone map tab. You’ll have to select each one and wait for it to render to see the results of each preset, very slow on my system.Īs for the actual tone mapping functions, easyHDR has a good list of options for creating realistic or dynamic HDR photos. EasyHDR has a list of presets but no preview for the list to see a sample of the results. After a few minutes of playing around with the alignment tool again I was able to get EasyHDR to align the image correctly.Īfter getting the image aligned I proceeded to tone map the image. So I ended up saving the file to take a look at it in Photoshop… and sure enough I was right, it wasn’t aligned properly. Trying to zoom in on the preview window is almost pointless as it’s slower than I have patients for. (Anytime I don’t have to click a button to get somewhere I’m suppose to be, I like!) Once I get to the tone mapping menu I noticed that the alignment of my image is off in the preview area. Of course this could be me and my lack of knowledge about this particular HDR program, but I promise you I did try to find an easier way.Īfter clicking the generate HDR button, I am taken to the tone mapping window automatically, which I like. Now in my opinion that’s very inconvenient. Something else frustrating about the program is that I have to remove my current exposure just to do a new set of exposures. I’m guessing easyHDR assumes I’ll be doing something else other than tone mapping my photo. I also didn’t like that I have to click another button after I align my photo to get to the tone mapping window.

I’ll be honest, the easyHDR alignment window is a little awkward, but the other two HDR programs, Artizen HDR and DynamicPhoto HDR, were the same way. The reason I find easyHDR’s alignment window frustrating is the lack of intuitive controls, even the manual aligment option was hard to understand. Once the exposures have been loaded a window will automatically pop-up allowing you to align the images. This is easily done by going to the number one tab and clicking the open button. But it’s not without fault, I still feel that EasyHDR could simplify it’s process to make tone mapping and creating HDR images easier.ĮasyHDR has a straight forward user interface, to proceed making an HDR image you’ll need to load your exposures. What makes it great is like the name implies, it’s easy. So far it’s my favorite out of the three high dynamic range programs that I’ve tested.
