双格式照片会优先识别 raw原始文件识别亮度激发。

这个问题很严重,按理来说应该直接识别套在外边那层压缩文件的。

Excellent SDR-to-HDR conversion for photographers

HDRfy has become a valuable part of my photography workflow. I process my photos in Lightroom and then use HDRfy to create HDR versions. It does an remarkably good job of converting finished SDR photographs to HDR, often producing results I prefer to what I can achieve using Lightroom’s HDR tools without considerable additional editing.

I’ve used it successfully with photos from high-end Sony mirrorless cameras as well as iPhone HEIC images. It is particularly useful for restoring an effective HDR presentation to iPhone photos after they have been edited in Lightroom.

The developer also deserves considerable credit for support. I reported an unusual full-resolution export problem that was difficult to reproduce. He corresponded with me directly, examined my sample files, investigated the full-resolution export pipeline, and made improvements in a subsequent release.

HDRfy is inexpensive, easy to use, actively developed, and does something I have not found another application that can do nearly as conveniently. Highly recommended for photographers with HDR-capable displays.

Thank you for the thoughtful review and recommendation! We’re delighted that HDRfy fits into your Lightroom workflow and helps you create HDR versions from both camera and iPhone photos. We also appreciate your detailed feedback and are glad we could improve the export experience.

很聪明的HDR增强软件

这是我第一次遇见好用的HDR增强软件,它不是简单的拉曝光来实现HDR。而是实实在在的HDR图像,很夯,高光以及暗部细节都能通过预设参数来完美保留。如果是你也是HDR爱好者,我很推荐你入手这个软件。也希望作者能长久更新。

好用就完事了,已购入永久

希望能增加一个给照片添加边框的功能(就是拼图的时候可以单张输出就可以了)
还有就是拼图的时候如果背景选白色的话激活hdr后边框会变得较为刺眼,如果边框在这个时候不激活hdr会好很多。
还有拼图功能在调整画布边距后(白或黑会与系统界面撞色)预览不到最外框,导致调整的时候比较盲目,无法从视觉上判断外边框的 大小
