Take a Snapshot of HDR
Here are some quick tips photographing High Dynamics Range (HDR), so that the HDR image you produce will be better :
- Use the bracketing feature in your digital SLR camera. By
using the bracketing feature, the camera will automatically up-drop the
value of the exposure (stop) very quickly, much more comfortable than
the hands we have to busy dial dial dial. - Read how to use bracketing for Canon SLRs
- Take 3.5 or 7 shots. Most HDR photos under normal conditions are generated from 5 photos with different exposure values and then combined. If you are facing a dark-lit photo object that is too flashy, take 7 exposures at a time so that the results are even better
- Do not vary aperture values in a series of shoots for an object. Set exposure mode in the Aperture Priority (A or Av) position to ensure the sharpness of the HDR photo end result. If you change the aperture value, the camera's focus will also change, so the sharp areas of the image become inconsisten
- Use matrix metering or evaluative metering where the camera will
measure all the elements in the photo object before determining how much
of the required exposure
- Wear a tripod to ensure the end result is not blurred. By using a tripod, our photos will be sharper because it is consistent from one shot to the next shot. If you have a shutter release, use it. if possible, use RAW format when shooting HDR.
