so the problem I'm having with HDR/Photomatix is, I can't shoot at +/- 2 exposure, I can only shoot at +/- 1 exposure, so that is throwing everything off. Anyone have any ideas?

 

I have an xti do they have bracketing? If so how do I set it up?

 

You can adjust that in photomatix when you select your photos (set it up to where 2 of the photos have the same exposure) so when you upload them into photomatix, it will prompt you to change the exposures since it sees that some of the photos have the same exposure that your trying to upload.

I hope your using raw files and not jpeg

 

^ I think I am using jpeg, I am uploading them from my SD card, how do I convert them to a raw file?

 

You cant, you have to have a camera that is capable of shooting in raw format.

 

oh, I don't think mine can. What is the difference of jepg and a raw file?

 

I big difference!

ok?

 

Now thats looking much better

 

Thanks..I wish I had an up close picture so I could see all of the details but I must admit, it does look a lot better than my other 3 fails.

 

Do you have a demonoid accout? www.demonoid.com

 

no but if its free i can get one lol

 

I think they have free registration on friday nights, so look out for it and you can get photomatix for free also!

 

Ill see if i can get it free from uTorrent too.
