 | | Take Better Pictures Than Your Camera CanPhotoAcute Studio (http://photoacute.com/studio/) allows professional photographers and photo enthusiasts to get better pictures with more spatial resolution and less noise and other artifacts (such as chromatic aberration and geometric distortions) with just a slight change to the workflow. Improve your photos as if you had much better camera!
Using the innovative RAW-in-RAW-out type of processing, PhotoAcute Studio can be used together with your favorite RAW processing and post-processing suite instead of replacing it.
While there is no way to add missing detail to a single picture, modern image processing algorithms can do wonders when combining several images and pulling hidden image details to increase MTF and visible spatial resolution. PhotoAcute Studio does not sharpen or super-size your images. Instead, it pulls every little detail from several shots taken from the same point to produce a single final image in super-resolution. You can even use this technique to obtain a photo-quality super-resolution shot by combining several frames of a webcam or a video camcorder. If you have enough frames, you can even print it poster-size - a hopeless mission without PhotoAcute Studio!
Don't let the numerous sharpness enhancers and image resize tools discourage you! PhotoAcute Studio provides a real, measurable increase in MTF numbers that can be proven with independent analysis tools such as Imatest. Have a look here (http://photoacute.com/mtf.html) at the MTF graphs of the original picture and of the one processed with PhotoAcute Studio.
PhotoAcute Studio is not limited to just increasing spatial resolution. It squeezes every bit of extra information available in the several shots to produce a final image that strikes you with its clean appearance, fine details and deep colors. While HDR processing is hardly new, PhotoAcute Studio still combines color and exposure information from several images to produce a final image with naturally deep colors and no under- or overexposed areas.
Combining several images allows discriminating between noise and the genuine details of an image. The unique noise reduction technique applied by PhotoAcute Studio produces naturally clean images with a smooth background and all fine details carefully preserved. Unlike still-image noise reduction algorithms, PhotoAcute Studio applies motion-based noise reduction similar to the ones used in movie production.
Macro photographers will undoubtedly appreciate the increased depth of field resulting from image stacking. Simply taking several pictures with slightly shifted focus and combining the images in PhotoAcute Studio produces sharp images with an amazingly wide dynamic range and deep depth-of-field that is hard or impossible to achieve otherwise.
Producing sharp, vivid, super-resolution images out of several pictures and supporting RAW file formats of all major photo manufacturers, PhotoAcute Studio is irreplaceable for any serious photographer or photo enthusiast. Download the free evaluation version at: http://photoacute.com/studio/ |

| Complete Guide to High Dynamic Range Digital Photography (A Lark Photography Book)
by Ferrell McCollough |  | It's the latest and hottest technique, made possible only through digital. High Dynamic Range photography is the process of taking several pictures of a scene at various exposures, then merging them into one file. So the entire photo can look crisp and detailed, from highlights to midtones to shadows-and photographers needn't sacrifice any part of their image.

And the best way to master this exciting technology is with this thorough, easy-to-follow, and visually spectacular guide. No other title does justice to these cutting-edge techniques, which actually take the viewer into worlds far beyond normal photography-sometimes even beyond normal human perception. Ferrell McCollough, a widely respected photographer, pushes the boundaries and inspires others to pursue their artistic vision, too. The amazing results simply can't be achieved any other way. | Words from the Author:
Photography is not my hobby or profession, it's my sweet illness. Each day I hold a camera it becomes a creative journey. I find myself searching deeper to see the essence of my subject. I become immersed in what I'm doing as I experiment and play. I often find it hard to walk away even when I'm done shooting. Of course only a few images are really successful but good or bad, the pictures taken are more about where I went and what I did.
Photography sparks the imagination and fantasy. It brings us closer to knowing what moves us in life. If you've never picked up a camera or if its been a long time, give it a try. Play, laugh, and shoot whatever you like. In time you will learn the strengths and weaknesses of the camera and you will be seeking and crafting images that reflect your moods and desires.
There is a saying, "Dance like nobody's watching" I love the saying because it really is a reminder to enjoy life with uninhibited enthusiasm. Thank you for taking the time, your valuable time, to visit this website. I hope you return now and then to catch up on my latest photos.
