I hereby confirm that the program works as it should after signing up with the developer and then activating the software online.
I really hope at least some of you gets this offer before it's too late. It seems easy, very good and with a ton of advanced options also.
Please let me know what you think and show me some of your results.

Since I don’t have the required picture files on my pc, I downloaded a set of those TTT has released for free here - https://www.tomstechtime.com/hdr

I chose the ship (File 1) and here's what I got out of it in less than a minute.



I think it works really well and I love free software. Try it.

How does the original file look?

It's not one file... it's three or five DNG files. We all know how it turns out shooting against the sun. The sun itself gets blown out to way too light and everything else gets too dark. This software is the way to fix the issue.

All explained in this video, and the GOTD offer can do just that.

Ah, ok.

I normally use Affinity photo just for that
Maybe not as good, but it can also replace Photoshop for me, so for 'only' $55 one time (no subscription) it is good enough for me.
And the best part: photoshop plugins also work

Hey FlyDK got it d/loaded and activated, tried using the same demo AEB photos as you, start processing and it hangs up, the program has been trying to process for over 10 minutes now. Seems like a good program if I can get it to work.

Hey QuadKid.

I did it like this and it worked like a charm.

I use adobe photoshop for HDR and AEB files.  Seems to work very well but this is great because it is free.

I would use Photoshop too if I could afford it.

Very curious to match the results.

You're welcome. It may be interesting to know what you achieve after the comparison.

Until today, I was convinced that only Adobe Photoshop could do such tasks, so I thought I had found the "holy grail". But now I've been better informed... maybe there are even more programs that can do this?

Photomatix Pro ($) has been my go to HDR software.

HDR Efex Pro from Google NIK Collection is also pretty cool. It's free, but hasn't seen an update for quite some time. Will be a paid product soon since it's acquired by DxO.

Lightroom and Photoshop are very simple in terms of options. There's not much settings to tweak.

Thanks FD, I was importing batch series, worked like a champ, much appreciated !! Did notice if you select "Correct Hot Pixels" it hangs up or takes a long time to process.

I have paid for the program (only $20).  

Here are two HDR images I just "scratched together". Sorry I have not correct for lens distortion.


The pictures are made from 5 AEB taken with my P4A.

I chose the ship (File 1) and here's what I got out of it in less than a minute.

I have a few questions:
Is this the full version of the software?
Is this a 30-60 day trial?
Is it for pics, or can you do videos as well?
Do you need any other software (Photoshop, etc.)

I downloaded DaVinci Resolve but it does  not work with my video card and I need some drivers too, so looking for a decent grading/editor.

Yes, I like it a lot.
Especially when you know a little about Photoshop it is not too difficult to get to know.
And there is a ton of info about it online.

Tnx.

EDIT:    Glemt bare ved fortælle, på disse billeder er mange gange bedre i fuld opløsning som PNG format. Works on a pano of the city in the same style. It will take a little longer time! {: 4_143:}

Hilsen Leif.
