I&#8217;ve always wanted a go at that, and I&#8217;d planned to get a decent dSLR at some point so I could experiment further.<\/p>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s not beat about the bush here. Proper dSLRs have dynamic range settings from 3eV upwards, and that allows for some stunning images. The TZ9 only has a 1eV range, and at \u00a3150 it is hardly trying to compete with the big boys.<\/p>\n<p>One thing I have discovered is that you definitely need to use a tripod, as the three individual photos are taken over about 1.5 seconds.&#160;While I was out his evening I stole a quick chance to get some pictures when I noticed the sun behind a pupil&#8217;s neighbour&#8217;s house.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6155 lazyload\" title=\"The bracketed images\" alt=\"The bracketed images\" width=\"480\" height=\"120\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.diaryofanadi.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/hdr_1.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 480px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 480\/120;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#160;These are three bracketed images taken at +1eV, 0eV, and -1eV. I took these at ISO 400, f\/6.3, and 1\/30 sec exposure. The sun was partially obscured by clouds just to the right of that house on the right &#8211; I was trying to get a situation where you&#8217;d normally get under-exposure in the foreground, or over-exposure of the background.<\/p>\n<p>This is the HDR image I produced from these:<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6156 lazyload\" title=\"HDR image\" alt=\"HDR image\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.diaryofanadi.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/hdr_2.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 480px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 480\/360;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#160;This is just a first try, but I was impressed by the detail of the foreground and those trees in the background, as well as on the house brickwork &#8211; even though the sun is just over there.<\/p>\n<p>I need to play with this some more when I get a chance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve mentioned my new camera a couple of times &#8211; it&#8217;s&#160;the Panasonic Lumix TZ9,&#160;with a nice high ISO range (for a small camera) that&#8217;s great for indoor pix at gigs.
