Dosch Design Announces Dosch HDRI: HDRfinish V1

 Date: Tue May 03 2005
May 3, 2005 - HDRfinish V1 is an easy-to-use productivity tool for HDRI viewing, file-type conversion and professional editing. Many areas of professional image design and editing are nowadays heavily dependent on the use of the advanced picture format HDRI (High Dynamic Range Image). Whether it is as a light-source or illumination technique in 3D-scenes (Image Based Lighting), in photography , or in documentation, the additional dynamic range of the HDR-images provides the designer with a superior degree of technical and artistic options.

With HDRfinish V1 there is finally a tool which unlocks these powers for a broad audience.

The conversion between the various HDR panoramic formats (e.g. Spherical Map, Light-Probe, Horizontal Cross, Vertical Cross) represents an important function of HDRfinish V1. From now on users can convert any HDRI into the desired panoramic format - and do so while maintaining unusually high picture quality. The times of trying to render a 3D-scene with a less-than-optimal panorama format are over.

Dosch Design's HDRfinish V1 program supports creating ones own HDR-images by turning multiple ordinary 24-bit pictures (e.g. from digital camera , scanner) from a controlled exposure-variation series into one High Dynamic Range-image.

Feature Overview:
* Load, Save and Print standard HDI-formats (hdr, open-exr, pfm), as well the standard LDR-formats (24-bit picture format) like BMP, TIF and JPG
* High-performance viewer with Alpha-blending, zoom interpolation and straight-forward navigation for hassle-free use
* Changing Exposure & Gamma-values of HDR-image
* Panorama conversion of all standard formats (Lightprobe, Spherical Map, Horizontal Cross, Vertical Cross, etc.)
* Image size adjustment with integrated, high-quality Interpolation and Anti-Aliasing feature
* Image cropping
* Image rotation & image mirroring (flip)
* Producing an HDR from a specific exposure series (e.g. BMP, JPG, TIF sequence)
* Filters for sharpness/blurriness control
* Combining 6 individual images (cube view) to a Horizontal Cross
* Pasting/adding of picture elements using Alpha-mask (e.g. replacing of floor/tri-pod in panoramic images)
* Working with LDR-formats (classic 24-bit picture format) at the same quality level and the same dynamic range as HDR-images
* Saving of the current dynamic range of an HDRI as a Low Dynamic Range Image

The product distinguishes itself through its user-friendliness and the attractive price/performance ratio. Dosch HDRI: HDRfinish V1 is compatible with Windows computers and is priced at 119.00 USD / 99.00 EUR.
