Some of your KLCC shots look ok. Wondering why u nvr post here.

3 years ago, when i first time use nokia n8

I like the 1st model punya baju.

If you like theeir 'baju' instead of their jugs, I have bad news for you...

Jugs = boobs? Of cos nice lah. But all sama2 nice mah. This model punya baju very casual looking yet sexy, I like tank/spaghetti tops.

My engine after overhaul, about to masuk car


Photos taken with HTC One X, out of camera unedited. Beach photos taken with camera in HDR mode so does that count as an edit?

The 2 photos at the beach is taken using the phone's built-in HDR feature, everything is untouched. And the HOX's HDR is a real HDR as in it combines 2 or 3 images into 1 to capture the full dynamic range. If taken using normal auto mode the image would either have overexposed skies or underexposed beach sand.

Heres an example of an image captured in normal Auto mode.



noticed how the trees are underexposed while the skies are overexposed? That's where HDR comes in. Most people use Exposure bracketing on their DSLRs usually within EV+-1 to do a HDR but the HOX comes built-in with the feature. Not too sure how does the iPhone's HDR work though(just googled, the iPhone 4s' HDR mode works similarly but not too sure about it's effectiveness as i did not compare side to side) but the Samsung S3's HDR is definitely nowhere near the HOX as i tried comparing it with my friend's.



This is another example of the effectiveness of the HDR mode. Without the HDR mode, the subjects would be severely underexposed and the only clear thing you would see is the sky but the HOX managed to capture the image with a bracket of +-1.3EV according to the EXIF data.

nightstalker, i admire your patience on the above post.

i guess i forgot.. hehehe...

woah big fly! apa bulat2 hijau tu eidda? cactus ke?

to me HDR out of phone built-in doesn't consider edited, for example iphone got HDR mode, it certainly give a lil bit good balance on underexposed situation. I consider edit if u edit it with software. But that's just me, dont know bout others. But it doesn't matter anymore, just post whether edit or unedit. its ok. Nice picture u got there. HDR works beautifully on 2nd picture. Well balanced.

I like this pic. It is not considered edit to me since it's all done before taking.

I finally know the purpose of HDR, thx for explaining. The 2nd pic is nice.

No probs, just sharing my knowledge

But technically it's actually an edit as it combines multiple photos into 1 eventhough it's all done by software. I've googled around results for images taken with the iPhone's HDR mode and the difference between HDR and non-HDR is minimal on the iphone while on the HOX it's quite huge. Will show another sample image below.

No probs, just make sure if you're experimenting with a camera and a HDR software like Photoshop or Photomattix, you don't overdo it. General rule of thumb, if your photo looks unnatural with weird auras around objects, you're probably overdoing it

Another tip for HDR is make sure your subjects are stationary, in the photo below you can see what happens if you have a moving subject as the camera snaps multiple images and combines them together, you get a ghosting effect

Heres a comparison without and with HDR mode and notice the ghosting effect on the HDR pic due to subject's movements. Basically HDR reduces the exposure of the overexposed part and increases the exposure of the underexposed part, making the image very balanced in term of exposure. You can google more about HDR if you're interested in the subject.




The reason why phone cameras capture situations like these badly in normal mode is due to it's tiny sensor. Generally the larger the sensor, the wider it's dynamic range so HDR is used to compensate for the lack of the sensor's dynamic range

generally HDR people use for landscape

i'm not sure other category la. can be use as long as interesting i guess
