Fun with HDR

[Wheels-Of-Fire]

The HDR channel also has 48min of an open fire in full screen UHD HDR.

There is hi res sound with it too so all you have to do is place your TV where your fireplace would be.

I may be a bit simple but I have been watching the logs burn for 10 min now ?

Tippon I think that was Duke’s point, it is not so much about vibrancy but subtly raising the intensity of the dark parts.

My Lumix camera is set to automatically fire off three shots spanning an exposure range. Most times I just choose the middle one out of the three but there are times (e.g. wedding shots inside the church) when you want to use bits from all the different exposures. Even hand balancing it all it is still difficult to ensure that it does not look artificial.

Yes Ed that was my point. Of you can get near true black and true white, and all the shades in between, you can dark shots with so much more detail. This is what I line about the 4k hdr footage. The wow voberaint animal shots are great, but they was great for demoing HD also. I have the Attenborough blue world (or whatever it is called on dvd and blue Ray, and if I had an hdr TV I’d probably get that too, as its a good way to show great content. However, the true greyness of more colours /shades, is non the dark screens.thatvos where you’ll appreciate it. But it doesn’t make great demo stuff.

The 4k hdr plus log fire demo, that too was once a HD demo back in the day. You had The fire burning channel and the discovery channel.

Sport is good in 4k too, I don’t know if hdr would enhance it though.
