HDR Video

I have been experimenting with HDR video. Most of what I have seen out there is unsatisfactory. I’m not ready to reveal anything just yet, but experiments are continuing.

This page is a placeholder until I have something I feel is worthy. It’s my goal to make the moving video equivalent of the photos below. If you want to see more about the photography technique, you can visit the HDR Tutorial.

I also have an HDR camera section, but this is currently only related to still photography. Many people ask, “Why not just use HDR Photoshop?” I don’t advise just using Photoshop, and I have a little article at that link that talks about it.

And here are some HDR photos for you:

Anyone want to join me at the beach for a good conversation?

    If you have an interest in HDR video, you should check out my experiments at http://www.youtube.com/user/NickBrianWalters I’m just about to do some new HDR experiments in the coming weeks, and it should be VERY interesting.

    Greetings Trey, I’ve been working on HDR video work-flow on-and-off for the past 3 years: http://www.hdrtimelapse.com . Please feel free to contact me! Personally, I lean towards natural looking tone-mapping but I’m confident you could get any look/feel you desire…

    Fantastic images, nice to see some HDR pushed to the max without maxing out, to many images are garish with halos, it’s so easy to go over the top with HDR.

I look forward to hearing your thoughts
