What version of Lightroom has HDR?
Now Lightroom has its own HDR option built-in. With Lightroom 6 (also known as Lightroom CC if you’re installing it through a Creative Cloud subscription), Adobe introduced two new photo merge features: a panorama stitcher and the HDR compiler.
Can you do HDR in Lightroom?
HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. In recent years, you have been able to process HDR images in Lightroom and ACR as long as they are merged in Photoshop and saved as a 32-bit Tiff file. All that has changed today! You can now process HDR images entirely in Lightroom.
Is Lightroom good for HDR?
HDR merging is one of the best features that Adobe has made available. Lightroom creates a raw file for your HDR file. This means that all data is being saved and you can use it like a normal raw image afterwards. This is the first software that I have come across that can do that.
How do I make HDR look in Lightroom?
Cmd/Ctrl-click the images in Lightroom Classic to select them. Select Photo > Photo Merge > HDR or press Ctrl+H. In the HDR Merge Preview dialog, deselect the Auto Align and Auto Tone options, if necessary. Auto Align: Useful if the images being merged have slight movement from shot to shot.
Where do HDR merge photos go in Lightroom?
Lightroom saves the merged image as a 32-bit DNG file, with the suffix -HDR appended to the file name, and takes you back to the module where you started. From there you can edit the image as normal in the Develop module.
Is HDR better in Lightroom or Photoshop?
While the Merge in HDR Pro route is slightly longer, it really does seem to produce sharper final images and better control of ghosting. When viewed at 200% the Photoshop merge seems obviously sharper than the Lightroom merge. Using Photoshop’s Camera Raw also seems to give us finer control over the end image.
