Use Cases

When to use HDR Merge

Interior Rooms

Mixed window and ambient light creates blown-out windows or dark interiors from a single exposure. HDR Merge handles this automatically.

Bright Exterior Shots

Driveways, facades, and aerial shots with wide dynamic range — all balanced in a single edit without tone-mapping artifacts.

High-Volume Shoots

Shoot in brackets and let the AI batch-process every set. No Lightroom plugins, no manual blending, no waiting on a human editor.

Same-Day Delivery Listings

Finish your shoot, upload brackets, and have MLS-ready images delivered before you leave the property area.

FAQ

Common questions about HDR Merge

How many exposures does HDR Merge accept?

We accept 3, 5, or 7-exposure bracket sets. The system detects sets automatically using EXIF timestamp and exposure value data. Odd-number brackets produce the best results.

What RAW formats are supported?

All major RAW formats are supported: CR3, CR2, ARW, NEF, DNG, RW2, ORF, RAF. JPEG brackets are also accepted. Files up to 100MB per image.

Is sky replacement really included at no extra charge?

Yes. Every HDR Merge job automatically includes sky replacement, TV screen mockup (if a TV is detected), and fireplace effect (if a fireplace is detected) — all at no additional cost.

What if my brackets weren't shot on a tripod?

Our alignment algorithm handles minor camera movement between exposures. Heavy movement from handheld shooting may produce ghosting artifacts — a tripod is strongly recommended for best results.

Do I get window pull included?

Yes. Automatic window pull is included — the exterior view is blended naturally through windows without harsh masking.
