Multiple Algorithms
From realistic to artistic, and every style in between, HDR Efex Pro is the new standard for HDR imaging. In order to bring you the ultimate in HDR
software, we developed four proprietary tone mapping algorithms. Unlike other applications, which only have only a single tone mapping algorithm,
HDR Efex Pro’s multiple tone mapping algorithms truly enable a broader range of results.
Intuitive Interface
High dynamic range photography is a complex and very technical photography style. As such, many HDR editing applications have complex controls and awkward interfaces. HDR Efex Pro has an interface that is both easy to learn and easy to use, with understandable terminology so that you can start working immediately.
U Point® Technology
For photographers, selective editing has always been one of the most difficult tasks, especially selectively editing one area of an image without affecting other areas. And with HDR images, this is no exception. Selective editing is especially critical in HDR photography where you want to ensure that tonality, color, and contrast across the entire dynamic range are correct. Revolutionary U Point technology lets you select an area of an image by simply clicking on it and then make changes using a Control Point and its associated sliders. U Point technology makes it possible to create precise selections without the need to use time-consuming manual selection tools and layer masks. Using Control Points, you have the ultimate level of control over the tonality, color, and detail of your images, producing results that more closely reflect your vision as a photographer.
Visual Presets
Although millions of people already shoot HDR photography, there are many more who may be intimidated by the technology or just do not know where to begin. The visual presets in HDR Efex Pro offer a simple way to work with HDR using just one click. View all of the visual presets or select just the ones you want based on the category of photography you do. If you like photography that mimics what your eye saw when you took the photo, try the Realistic, Architectural or Landscape presets. However, if you enjoy highly stylized and creative looks, use the Artistic or Surreal presets.
