PTGui Pro - Export linked exposure sets as 32bit EXR

[Dziga Kaiser]

Hey guys & girls,

this might be a little bit confusing as to why I would want to do this but is it possible to link the exposures and then just export blended EXRs for each exposure set?

No placement, no alignment, no stitching, only exposure blending to get a 32bit EXR and save to source resolution output. 

I have had no success in finding a software that does this as an automated process (only get 8 to 16bits from other software I tried so far) and neither LR, PS nor Affinity Photo seem to have batch processing for this.

I thought that since PTGui does it when exporting the full panorama, it should be easy enough to get it separate just as is.

The options to export blend planes or individual layers are not really what I mean.

If someone knows a working solution outside of PTGui I am very open to suggestions. Preferably not another paid software as they start to really pile up here but if there is no other way...^.^

I do have Nuke and would love to do it there but I couldn't find a plugin for versions later then v9. In case someone here knows something, please let me know.

Any help and/or pointers are greatly appreciated!!

Thanks and take care,

Dziga

Would that help you:

If not, please ask again

I think SNS-HDR can do it, photomatix as well, but it's definitely
possible with PTGui Batch Builder and a respective template.

Hi Erik,

I am gonna try this out. 

Thank you!
