#Merging photos in on1 photo raw for hdr trial

I imagine that there's some library out there that does this and the UI is 3 buttons.

and to be honest, I think that's a very basic feature that should be there! All I need is a tool that merges brightest and darkest parts of 2 or 3 images and creates a new raw file. Nothing fancy like those fancy over-do panorama mergers. I am not interested in a panorama merge which would be indeed very complex to add.Д«ut HDR merge. So maybe I was not clear on that in my post. I use Panoramastudio to merge my panoramas. They just added that to Phothsop, though I have not played with it yet.

What it doesn't have is consistency on merging panoramas for 360 degree stitching and there's no support for 360 x 180 degree panoramas. The HDR merge is awesome and the panorama merge works very well. But that's my personal opinion and those exist like sand on the beach. Thanks for reading through this and sharing your thanks for your answer. So, it's almost a decision maker for me if HDR merging is part of C1, or at least on the road-map. So I do believe that this should be part of the basic adjustments process, so that the tonality can be kept steady across the entire panorama and more so, save me a lot of time wasted in other applications. I feel that I would loose a lot of time clicking through various interfaces to get to the next step. Or merge all of them in the same fashion. I'd have to do that manually, shot by shot and then make sure that those shots are in the same tonal range than the ones without parts of the outside world on them. When I now switch to C1 I would have to take the shots where I see the outside to Photoshop for merging. Many times the inside is very dark and the outside will be blown out beyond recognition. I guess for outside shots it's possible to use the HDR sliders within C1 to recover shadows and highlights, but I am very skeptical about shots from inside a building. That's 90 - 120 shots if shot in brackets. I do a lot of 360 panoramas (full 360 x 180 degrees) and I mostly end up whit 30 - 40 shots for one panorama. BUT, it doesn't run in batch mode! There is a script around which I used that will run this in batch mode, but like anything form the community, it's unreliable and updates/support is close to zero. And yes, Photoshop has a very nice 'auto-align' tool that will merge HDR's just fine. I read through this thread and I agree that the right tool should be used for the right task. I would love to see some people that do Luminosity mask plugins/extensions for Photoshop jump on the wagon and offer their tools in C1.Д«ut one thing that is clearly missing in C1 is to merge HDR shots.

One could consider dropping Photoshop seeing this. Firstly the image quality is better from the get-go, which will save me a lot of time compared to doing basic adjustments to get the same starting point, then I am impressed by the layering system for adjustments. I think that C1 is superior in many ways.

That said, I found this topic because I am considering to switch from Adobe to C1 and so far I am impressed by using the trial version and also by watching a lot of videos. And yeah, this is my first post here, so be gentle рџЉ Sorry to bother everyone on this old topic.
