Hydra › HDR Photo Studio for PC and Mac

1. Hydra lets you create beautiful high-dynamic-range (HDR) images by merging multiple exposures, effectively capturing both dark and bright subjects to make it more natural or to enhance scene drama.

2. This new release of Hydra has been optimized for latest PC enhancements and it provides native Metal support with maximum performance, in addition to a more modern and simpler user interface.

3. Hydra allows you to overcome this limitation by merging a number of photos with different exposure settings and to create a natural image that is much closer to what your eyes actually see.

4. - Blazingly fast rendering to various output file types (JPG, TIFF, HDR, EXR) and color spaces (sRGB, Pro Photo, AdobeRGB…).

5. - Accurate color processing, including support for Deep & Wide Color displays (30-bit, DCI-P3 display of latest Windows 27’).

6. A single photo cannot represent the entire dynamic range of light in a scene due to the physical limitations of the sensor.

7. Alternatively, Hydra can also artistically push contrasts to increase drama and emotions in your pictures beyond reality.

8. - Manual removal of ghosting artefacts using region delineation tool and per-region output contribution.

9. - Single or multiple input photos of various formats (JPEG, RAW, HDR, EXR).

10. - Automatic or manual image alignment with high-precision live positioning and fine-tuning.

11. - Much improved tone mapping including presets, and live, full-resolution preview.
