easyHDR Pro

easyHDR PRO is a software application that can be used in order to produce High Dynamic Range (HDR) images from a sequence of photos with different exposure settings.

The installation process might last a while, as this product needs to unpack a pretty significant amount of files, while the interface you come across can only be described as modern and well-organized. The main window encompasses a menu bar, a tabbed navigation panel, several buttons, a pane in which to display your on-going project and another one from which you can choose one of the generated presets.

Comprehensive Help documentation is incorporated, so that you can easily work with easyHDR PRO, even if you are not particularly experienced with computers.

At import, it is possible to use a large number of formats, out of which we mention DNG, RAW, ERF, DCR, SRW, RAF, NEF, CRW, BMP, PNG, TIFF and JPG, while export is only available using a JPG of TIFF file type.

By adding two or several pictures with different exposure levels, you make it possible to set up the program to generate an HDR, with just a click of the button.

Various presets are going to be listed in a dedicated pane, so that you can easily choose the one that you think is best. It is possible to view a histogram, adjust colors with a tone curve, as well as control the gamma, sharpness, saturation, temperature, tint, hue and compression level.

It is possible to apply certain effects (e.g. Gaussian blur, unsharp mask, median filter etc.), rotate, flip and crop photos, as well as process multiple pictures in the same time with the help of a batch processing tool.

To wrap it up, easyHDR PRO is a pretty efficient piece of software when it comes to creating HDR photos, with a simple-to-handle GUI. The response time is good, it does not require a large amount of system resources in order to work properly and we did not detect any kind of errors or hangs.
