HDR Test
Just a simple test with HDRTist, a free software for the Mac for HDR photography. Individual images were 7 JPG images in 2/3 aperture steps, taken handheld with the Panasonic GF1. What stands out: HDRTist aligns the images correctly but keeps the edge in the image file (clearly visible at the bottom and left). You should therefore crop again after the HDR processing (and due to the inevitable position changes in handheld series recordings, plan for some edge in the recording). Surprisingly, the tone mapping is very natural and in small comparisons the combination and tone mapping are much more pleasing than with commercial alternatives that I have tested.
