Subject: HDRI imaging - how?

It's not OT anymore... not that Vue 5 will support HDRI, I need to learn how to make HDRI images using my Canon Digital Rebel camera and Photoshop... and how to use them. Do any of you know of any online source with CLEAR and EASY tutorials about he creation of HDRI images? I seem to have read one time ago, but I remember it was quite difficult to understand. I hope that there are easier resources for beginners somewhere.

Hi ... may be you will find something here : http://www.debevec.org/ See HDRI shop section for example ...

Most tutorials are application specific i.e. HDRI in Max, HDRI in Carrara, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see how E-On have implemented this in Vue 5.

My only assumption is that HDRI format (.hdr) files will be needed. In which case Ulead's PhotoImpact XL is worth considering as this supports conversion of AE bracketed images to .hdr format, all in a friendly interface (see URL above). The Rebel has both AE and WB bracketing so you have plenty of creative choice! :-)

The best news is that PhotoImpact XL has just dropped in price by about half, in the UK at least. (Presumably there's a new version out soon?) HDRI file creation for less than the price of a PhotoShop plugin!

Orio, There is a vey good thread over at CG Networks about this. Also links to some other resourses.

Looking at the Vue 5 info I found that E-ON seem to have provided us with a huge number of HDRI files anyway. See the attached image.
