The Workflow |

After you capture about three images with different exposure, it is time to create the HDR file then Tone Map it..
The workflow is like this:
| • | (1) Taking pictures |
| • | (2) Adding images and setting Exposure Value |
| • | (3) Aligning Images and optionally creating Anti-Ghosting mask |
| • | (4) Creating HDR file |
| • | (5) Tone Mapping |
| • | (6) Exporting Final Image |
After the step 4 we have a HDR file that has expanded dynamic range. You will not see any significant improvement of the image at this stage, because HDR file cannot be displayed on current monitors with its full expanded range. What you will see displayed will be a very quick tone mapping (just so we can see the image)
In the final step (5) we will tone-map the HDR file back into normal low dynamic range image using various predefined settings.
There is a more advanced workflow using Batch process
