Title: Multiple Exposure Element
Post by: iancamarillo on 2019-06-27, 17:30:23

I often save my renders with 2 stops up or down and brush in photoshop to mask the areas I want to show. It can be kinda time consuming to open cxr's for each camera. Is there a way to do this with jpeg elements? Thanks!

Could you then use an (HDR?) program that combines all exposures?

You get this already from Corona if you save in 32bit :- ) You can save with true linear (HL1, no contrast) and use any tonemapper on market for photography.

I do this trick as well OP, I just use CRX, but it's not bad idea at all and could be take further.
What you're asking for is to give "Beauty" pass also override tonemapping controls so you can bypass CRX.
