I was trying to learn HDR for the past 6 months, using mainly online tutorials. This is the first book I bought or read on the subject. Without going into too much scientific detail the author provides a great understanding of what HDR is all about.

It gives you more information about why the background necessary to HDR, which causes noise in digital photos and a lot of information that may or may not want to, before he ever gets into how to do some HDR.

In addition, it compares the different programs to handle HDR and the strengths and weaknesses each program.

As soon as he gets in the factual part of HDR, it gives you quite a lot of information you may need to produce great photos of HDR. He shows examples and explains how to obtain and “realistic” and “artistic” photos.
He also shows what problems you can carry different types of scenes and how to approach and fix problems that may arise.

It also shows how to make HDR-type processing of one image (although he claims that will not help you as the “true” result of HDR.

It covers many areas in which you can use of HDR, including interior photos at home, or color gels, as well as new techniques he developed called “flash merger, which takes multiple images using flash photo-making and HDR on this. I personally think that the study of this new ‘ flash fusion technology “worth the price of the book alone.

There are also some examples of the great photographers HDR (but mostly for the inspiration of what can be done, and do not offer as many ways -k).

If you are not familiar with HDR and want to know how its done, an analysis of the scene before the first images ever captured in the chamber until the final image, if you do it for some time and you want to know how to approach the problem areas that store images HDR from looking like professionals (eg, noise in the clouds and dark areas), then this book will be a great investment…. And this is a great price. < br /> ByronT
