THE PHOTO COOKBOOK SERIES A Practical Guide to HDR Vertorama Photography © Klaus Herrmann 2013 Preface iv About the Practical Guide to HDR Vertorama Photography HDR (High Dynamic Range) Vertorama photography creates fasci- nating views of interiors. It takes your audience out of the specta- tor's seat and puts it right into the scene. An interior photographed this way literally comes to life. It opens towards the viewer, and in- vites him to immerse into the scene. An excellent HDR Vertorama will be a highlight in your portfolio. But what does it take to create such an image? Which equipment do you need? What are proper techniques for shooting the photos and how do you turn them into the final image? In this eBook, I will answer these questions and show you how to create your own HDR Vertoramas, taking your photography to the next level. The 7 chapters will walk you through everything you need to know about the technology, different shooting techniques, and the post– processing workflow for creating your own HDR Vertorama photo- graphs.

Im looking at the 3100 as a relatively light weight travel and family shoot camera, but Im spoiled by the auto bracketing on my D200.. I find bracketing a simple and viable way to ensure good exposures w.o. having to resort to UniWB. Of course, a firmware update for the 3100 would be the best solution.. As always, many thanks. Its very annoying the Nikon refuses to provide autobracketing on the D3100 or other such entry level cameras.The only other way I know of is to begins shooting in full manual mode and dial in shutter speed or aperture directly to accomplish your goal.

Tyukhova, M.S. University of Nebraska, 2012 Adviser: Clarence Waters This research investigates whether a High Dynamic Range Imaging (HDRI) technique can accurately capture luminance values of a single LED chip. Previous studies show that a digital camera with exposure capability can be used as a luminance mapping tool in a wide range of luminance values with an accuracy of 10%. Previous work has also demonstrated the ability of HDRI to capture a rapidly- changing lighting environment with the sun.

  • Canon R-Serie Canon Flex Mai 1959 Flex
    Canon R-serie Canon Flex Mai 1959 Flex The top-class 35mm camera market gradually shifted from rangefinder cameras to single-lens reflex cameras. The major reason was that SLRs could handle close-ups, photomicrography, duplication work, and other applications without being constrained by the limits of rangefinder camera lenses. When Canon introduced the Canonflex, its first SLR, there were already eight SLR models on the market. The Canonflex used a high-quality, breechlock lens mount. The lens flange ring was turned to lock the lens onto the camera flange's bayonet lugs. The lens flange and camera flange did not rub against each other like today's lens mounts.The camera used Super-Canomatic lenses which had a fast, fully-automatic diaphragm. A 130-degree winding trigger at the camera bottom enabled quick film advance. An external selenium exposure meter could also be attached. Canon R-serie Canon Flex RP September 1960 Flex RP To cut costs, the camera had a fixed, eye-level pentaprism viewfinder. This was the economy or "Populaire" version of the Canonflex. The self-timer was operated by a simple lever, and the pentaprism cover was part of the single-piece top cover. Other features and performance were the same as the original Canonflex. Canon R-serie Canon Flex R2000 September 1960 Flex R2000 Deluxe version of the Canonflex. With a top shutter speed of 1/2000 sec., the fastest ever for any camera, the R2000 was a high-performance 35mm SLR. Other than that, it was the same as the original Canonflex. The viewfinder used a Fresnel matte focusing screen without a rangefinder.
