HDR (High Dynamic Range) imaging is quickly becoming a mainstream digital darkroom technique, and if you can’t afford Adobe PhotoShop, or Adobe PhotoShop Lightroom, there is a more affordable alternative to utilize this exciting process. HDRsoft announced the release of Photomatix Pro 2.4, the latest version of its dynamic range increase software. Designed for professional photographers and advanced amateurs, Photomatix Pro creates and processes High Dynamic Range images produced from differently exposed photographs of a high contrast scene.
Version 2.4 adds an option to reduce ghosting artifacts when the scene is not still. Other additions include undo and redo settings on the Tone Mapping window, a gamma slider for the Details Enhancer method, and naming options for output files in Batch Processing. Photomatix Pro is a stand-alone application that runs on Mac OS X (Universal Binary) and Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista. The software enables users to blend exposures hassle-free, create 32-bit HDR images, and reveal their details in highlight and shadow using a powerful tone mapping tool.
A license for Photomatix Pro costs $99(US). For more information and to download a free trial version, visit the HDRsoft website.
