Use HDR to increase the details of the photos.
Tried another settings:

if use RAW single image, need to convert it to JPEGs with different exposures only process in photomatix, or just use the original raw file? I dun have suitable RAW pics to test now...

I use single raw file.

Shutterdll if you can share your settings I also wan~

Here is my process biggrin.gif

1. In photomatix:
- Automate -> Select Single File Conversion

2. Check Convert Raw File or 16 bit linear TIFF into [select Radiance RGBE]

3. Select your raw file. Click Run. And then Close. This will produce HDR image

4. File - Open. Locate the HDR image

5. Click HDR - Tonemapping

6. Here is my setting:
- Strength 100%
- Color saturation to ur liking.
- light smoothing - medium

- Tone and Color tab to ur liking

- Micro->
- I set Microcontrast 10 and Micro-smoothing 0

- S/H to ur liking also. See how much shadow you want to expose.


Added on June 11, 2009, 10:44 pmfor me, i get good effect by:

setting Microcontrast high and Micro-smoothing low
and strength high.

sometimes might get noise. but can remove in PS with noiseware plugin biggrin.gif
