How to do an HDR?

[jwsciontc]

if i do the bracketing, to i need to take 3 pictures by pressing the shutter 3 times or do i take it once and it takes all 3? i tried once and set it to -2/0/+2 and snapped it once and the three amrkers blinked on the exposure meter in the VF but only 1 pic uploaded

does anyone use the pentax k200d built in HDR filter? i would be curious to see what its version looked like.

switch- what exactly did you do on your camera to get that sunset photo? and what do you mean by 6 stops? by the way, its REALLY beautiful.

This wasn't so easy, the tonal range was more then 6 stops.

WOW, and you say you did all of that in Lightroom>??? I'm so very impressed.. I knew lightroom was great, but I didn't know it was capable of this.... so you boosted up the clarity... and I assume played around with the color values?

Would you be able to (or mind) showing me what settings you changed in Lightroom in the development stage to achieve this look? I think it would help me out tremendously in understanding how to effectly change the settings using lightroom...

3, 5, 7, or 9 but three should be sufficient for most applications.


I have been looking for the last few days for the originals to one of mine and was going to draw up a quick pictoral how to dealie but...I seem to have misplaced them with one of two flash disks and unsorted unloading folders on the Home PC.

As soon as I find something to use for it I'll do it up.
