Hi, I am playing around with HDR merging, XT-5, 16-80 at 16mm.  The first photo is bracketing in camera and the next photo was done merging three photos (three stops apart) using Capture One.  Both were edited using Capture One.  I thought the end results were both good; however, I thought the HDR merge in Capture One provided more DR, better color resolution.  I thought the in-camera merge was a little flat.  Agree?

Here is the photo using Capture One to merge three photos.  This is a grassy marsh near Bethany Beach Delaware.

I prefer the in-camera merge, more natural all round and more pleasing colours.

Last autumn I took a few shots with a fisheye lens at each location before wrapping it up. These landscape types came out well, I think. Anyone got tips on fisheye lens landscape motifs? (X-E4  with 7Artisans 7.5mm)

wanted to get someone's opinion........I took a photograph in poor lighting and I'm trying different editing techniques.  The first photograph is an underexposed jpg.  The second is an edited version of the same RAF file using Capture One.  The third one is an edited version of the same photograph, except it's a HDR merge of photographs with varying exposures.  Did I gain anything by using HDR or does the regular edited version look OK?  I thought they looked pretty similar.

@MARRIEDGUY9, Are you up for considering something entirely different?

This image you posted really makes me think of Ansel Adams zone system approach for black and white photos as well as for toned photos such as platinum toning. I believe this one would make an excellent toned image (uh, but not sepia) if you wanted to concentrate on bringing out shadow detail without destroying the brighter highlights.

      (p.s. Open Topic.)  
    • The backslashes you are referring are just symbols denoting path.  Once you import into these LUTS into Davinci Resolve those backslashes are removed by default and you only see is the true file name which has no backslashes.  Convince yourself of this by opening the LUT folder from the Davinci Resolve Project Settings.  Do you see any backslashes in those LUT names? Of course not.  The only name you see is the one that has the underscores and the periods. These LUTS work as designed without having to change any path names.  However, they need to be set up properly through CSTs and by what is supported in Davinci Resolve.  Hence, the FLog2C film simulation LUTS cannot be used because Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut color space and the FLog2C gamut. Alternatively, Davinci Resolve does support Flog2 film simulation LUTS because the color space for FLog2 is Rec 2020 and there is an FLog2 gamut. If all you are doing is changing the path names then you are not getting the correct results.
    • I found the reddit topic i refere to :  https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/ "Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them. I changed the file name and it works now. "   For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕  
    • Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don  
    • Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!
