HDR EFEX PRO PRO
Nik’s HDR Efex Pro accommodates JPEG and TIFF files in addition to Raw. HDR Efex Pro may open new vistas for photographers capturing images with invisible light, too. Opening a five-shot bracketed sequence in HDR Efex Pro, I immediately applied the 11 Artistic monochrome preset (at left) and used the sliders (at right) to produce the final result, which appeared to have more depth than the single-shot digital IR images that I have created in the past. You can even create monochrome HDR images by using two black-and-white presets that are labeled 11 Artistic and 12 Artistic, but if you look closely you will see that the basic effect was produced by dragging the Saturation slider to zero, which opens up an infinite number of possibilities when combined with the other sliders and built-in HDR Methods. Bafford would have been pleased to know that a digital 2x4 is available via the Method Strength slider that lets you vary the overall effect from zero to 100 percent in 1 percent increments. HDR Method features a pop-up menu containing 20 different options, ranging from Natural to Harsh Local Contrast, to produce effects ranging from, well, natural looking to the artistic or cartoony, depending on where you stand on the whole HDR issue. One of the most important controls on the right side is the HDR Method option that uses four tone mapping algorithms, which enable virtually unlimited HDR looks that can be adapted to a particular style of photography, whether that’s realism or fantasy. This proves that HDR Efex Pro’s built-in anti-ghosting algorithm does an excellent job when used with handheld shots like this one where minor camera movement is inevitable.
HDR EFEX PRO ISO
(Above): Proving that HDR can be produced in monochrome, this image was captured in a three-shot bracket using a Canon EOS 5D and an EF 16-35mm lens with a nominal exposure of 1⁄125 sec at f/13 and ISO 200. I have tried this and can confirm it works OK.(Top): The HDR Method pop-up menu on the right-hand side of HDR Efex Pro contains 20 different tone mapping options that can be controlled by a slider that lets you apply effects from zero to 100 percent.
HDR EFEX PRO SOFTWARE
Open the finder and navigate to Applications : Nik Software : HDR Efex Pro.ĭouble click on the file, “HDR Efex Pro” to launch the application. This method will merge TIFF and JPG images only.
HDR EFEX PRO SERIES
Open Windows Explorer / My Computer and navigate to: C:\Program Files\Nik Software\HDR Efex Pro.ĭouble click on the file, “HDR Efex Pro.exe” to launch the application.Ĭlick on File >Open Exposure Series and select the image(s) to merge into HDR Efex Pro. To access the standalone versions, please see below: Process as normal in HDR Efex Pro and then you would save that file and bring it back into Photoshop Elements to do the rest of your processing.
You will then open HDR Efex Pro in standalone mode, and open that image. I recommend first processing your image in Dfine 2.0 and then saving it as either a Tiff or a Jpg. As a standalone, it functions exactly the same, but it can only handle Tiff or Jpg images. Yes, HDR Efex Pro is the only one of our software that will run as a standalone product. TIFF using elements and save them then you can run HDR Pro standalone as described by this except from this link: Jeff sent me the following very useful information which will be of help to those who use Photoshop Elementsĭave, as a follow up to your talk on HDR Pro, you may know that it is not possible to use HDR Pro from elements.
