HDR = high dynamic range. A software process for converting the full dynamic range of your camera images (usually combing 3 or more images at different exposures) to match the very limited dynamic range of your monitor. The point of HDR is to display a photo on your computer monitor or printer that emulates the dynamic range of the human eye (from full white to full black) for a more natural look. Strictly by manipulating the dynamic range. Increasing color saturation does just that ... simply increases the color intensity of the image, often beyond a natural look to something gawdy, like most of your examples. HDR and color saturation are two totally different things. If you do both ... HDR and increase color saturation, you get the over-saturated burned and over-done gawdy HDR photos so many people think looks neat, but far from what the human eye ever sees. Photos and video from your Phantom should have exposure and color as natural to the scene as possible. Post processing is to push exposure or color to make up for poor lighting, ND filters, etc. to get it back to a NATURAL look. Pushing saturation or color hue beyond that just makes for an unnatural photo. Again, increasing color saturation has nothing to do with the point of HDR.
yeah, I've found out how to use the PSD HDR function : )
Also, in HDR it increases sat by 20% by default!! I didn't know this before and I'm telling the truth. |
