robert_brake1 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 <p>With judicious use you can get the 10+ stops of good black and white negative film. It will take some work to keep it under control however.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beartooth1 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 <p>I do the B & W conversion after my HDR workflow is complete...have never tried it the other way....<br> I would think the image would loose some punch if converted to B & W then merged the images...might be interesting to try it and see how much difference there is in the final output.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlharris Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 <p>I tried converting some HDRI's to B&W about a week and a half ago.</p> <p>http://www.flickr.com/photos/jlharris/sets/72157617950757395/</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshroot Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 <p>I'm not a huge HDR fan (or hater) but I might like those b/w HDR images better than color ones. Has an effect, but isn't so fake and cartoony looking. For whatever my opinion is worth.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denisgermain Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 <p>as mentionned before the the full color HDR, then convert to BW.<br> This (if not overdone) will give amazing contrasty black and white prints.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
