Moire is such a challenge with HDR. My DSLRS are weak in that way, and any HDR work - either from stills or from video make the problem worse. Would love a good solution for what's happening to your lovely bricks here. Plagues me too! Maybe the d1x moire control will solve this?
@MarkReedreber the bricks remain an issue specially with DSLR's, we are working on a solution and our newest tests actually are solving the moire issue to a certain degree. We will post it when it's perfect.
HDR is not reliant upon 3 separate images. In point of fact 3 images are the minimum required to accurately capture all of the differences of color tone, and contrast differences. Also, HDR images are processed in a computer, but the actual imaging is purely optical.
you retards know what HDR stands for? high dynamic range. what this means is that you have a range of luminance that goes beyond the limitations of the camera. There is no rule for how you get the exposure to achieve this. HDR can be done w/ one exposure if you shoot RAW on a camera... you don't need three exposures. So all you DSLR pros who now own T2is + 50mm 1.8, stfu b/c you don't know anything. If he goes into after effects and photomatix to create an abnormal dynamic range, its HDR.
mate, if you want to do PRO hdr, it's better to get 3/5/7 bracketed shots (on tripodd) then create them from one RAW - the noise in the brightened shadows not gonna look PRO. but you should know it, b/c you're PRO, arent you?
@rpedro82 If it's something you added in post production. like a preset it's not really real HDR just saying. But yeah other than that you probably do know more than me.
@domtriga Hey Domtriga, sorry if I sounded a little harsh. So, an explanation about our process, true hdr is used with several cameras, for this test we only used one camera, (so from a point of vue you were right :p ) but worked with three the same videos. We didn't use a plugin, but a technique that we are creating for video from scratch. Our next tests will be with multiple video cameras, to push the boundaries much further.
@Rufucoll Well they didn't tell us exactly how they did it...just that they did it. How do you do it is my question...it just looks like color correction for the most part
@whole27 Well HDR photography means you take 3 or more photographs of different exposures and then pull them together into one photograph and any additional editing afterwards. Colour correction really doesn't come into it.
Although you can always just fake it by adjusting the exposure afterwards and putting them all together but it rarely turns out quite as good. From what you said it sounded like they used 3 different cameras side by side at different exposures...?
@rpedro8 Fake HDR or not, this technique can be very useful. I find it so funny how some db has to comment on every "fake" hdr video on youtube. We know it's not a "real" HDR video. Who has 3 video cameras hooked up at different exposures? NO ONE! To most people HDR is a look or feel, not a technique. Show a fake HDR video someone and they will say "wow". Thats all you need.
@rpedro82 There are tons of way to do it, I think... I bet you used AE to convert the footage to JPEG sequence, used 3 different exposures, then batch process in Photomatix... You can actually remove the flicker on the video to make it smoother... My other and easy way is using only Premiere Pro but not as cool as Photomatix method...
@krakadyll didn't remove the flicker because I only wanted to show the HDR tests without any other image manipulation. Didn't use AE nor Premiere nor Photomatix :-) I did use different exposures.
@rpedro82 Thanks for clearing that up for me. FWIW, I seem to recall having seen some material on a camera that (memory may be faulty) uses a 3-chip system to record bracketed exposures, rather than split colors as is common for most of the existing 3-CCD cameras on the market. I'll try to remember where I saw that and come back with a name/company.
@rpedro82 I think AMP HDR's camera may be the one I saw. The only other references I found in a quick search were ones to what sounded like a one-off prototype from University of Warwick in the UK.
Oh, another thing that came to mind: a little trick for better HDR on a DSLR: use the cinestyle setting. Has a little more latitude. And really gives a better HDR. Even if you shoot with only one camera and in post alter the exposure to create the other images.
@krakadyll and yes there are tons of way to do it, you can do in scratch, ae, photmaix, iridas, davinci, premiere,.... all different solutions and way of work!
@rpedro82 what? It's not a hdr. A hdr is high dynamic range, from 3 DIFFERENT shots combined. Looks nicer, but you could easily just have turned down the exposure and played with the levels and stuff...
Thank you so much for sharing your three demonstrations of the same scene... very useful and informative. I personally like #1.

HDR looks good
but the sky just turns grey
you might want to replace the sky with sky that isn't washed out

The highpass effects are pretty bad. I mean the look of the material is very artificial.
HighDynamic Range should deliver a wide range of contrast at a flat gradient. this is more an effect look. Just my thoughts.

@OckhamDeRazor the separate exposures where done in post. Separate exposures with cameras, will be done when we'll be using two cameras.
