Hey Guys,

I only did one shot, this was from the April 25th Meet.

My HDR Shot...-hdr1.jpg


I need some help on how to make more consistent HDR shots. Anyone have any specific tutorials or basic guides?


Or is it depending on each picture and exposure. Do you guys use RAW for HDR shots (3 images)? or just regular JPG's with 3 different exposures.

I use 3 jpeg pictures with different exposures. I learned through youtube. There is a tutorial on HDR and another tutorial on how to use the adjustment brush on the RAW images.

Nice pic BTW

Thanks! Youtube is great!

I have Photomatix and Adobe photoshop CS4 too. so I used those. I guess I just have to sit there and watch those tutorials huh? Its funny how there's no definitive guide because it depends on all pictures.

For your RAW images, are they much bigger than jpg's? I hear its better to work with it, but whats the advantages to RAW over JPG?
