Is this with the new kit, Linda? - Ah - yes I see the 650D mentioned! What a dramatic rendering - detail, texture, colour toning and contrasts, and with only +/- 1 stop exposure - flies in the face of some conventional wisdom.
Great Stuff.

Linda, there is a school of thought in HDR photography that holds that 5 shots are the minimum, preferably 7, at 1 stop intervals (Nightingale's book). However, when I have tried this I did not notice any significant difference in most circumstances, and Canons only do 3 shot bracketing up to +/- 2 stops.Thus a tripod and time are needed. Where there can be a difference is if you have a small bright light source, then 5 shots can tweak detail in that source.
Cheers

Really? I think 3's plenty enough, especially when you can never be bothered to take your tripod with you lol.....I see what you mean for working in small detail though

I've been thinking this over, Linda, and in my experience a couple of "rules of thumb" have emerged . First, if the dynamic range of a scene is less than the dynamic range of the camera, about the dynamic range of the camera, or only slightly greater than the dynamic range, then three images at 0 and +/- 2 stops would be adequate (i.e. -2, 0, and +2 stops). This is the default HDR setting if you like. Second, if the scene is substantially above the dynamic range of the camera, then a minimum of 5 images with 0 and +/- 3 stops would be better than the default. How you space those images is up to personal taste/experience. But, then you are clearly into tripod country. For excessive testing how about 11 shots? ==> [link]
