View Full Version : Anyone do HDR in infrared?

I thought about trying it, but it seems sort of difficult. Or at least the kind of thing that requires more planning. Since Most people seem to prefer the AEB method, and since I often lose about 2 stops just by using an infrared camera, and since the AEB feature of my camera only goes to -4 stops anyway, that seems like it'd make it a lot more difficult to get an HDR shot in infrared.

Anyway, has anyone here tried this? Anyone seen any examples of any HDR infrared images? Because while I've only done some brief tinkering with HDR, it seems like it could be a useful tool. I'm just curious as to how this would actually turn out, using either the realistic or the more "cartoony" approach to HDR photography.

I never even considered HDR on infrared. God, I imagine that would look amazing when done correctly.

Or it might look like crap.

But hey, what's the harm in trying it out, right?

That's one of the things on my "to do" list for this week, I was just curious if anyone was aware of any examples of someone trying this. Anyway, I'll post something after I get around to trying it. I'm still not very good at infrared photography and I'm even more inexperienced with HDR, but I figure it still might be worth looking into. I'll get back to you with some stuff soon.
