Talk:Multi-exposure HDR capture

First HDR paper[edit]

The article cites a 1993 talk by Mann as the first presentation of HDR algorithms. But there's no public link or documentation to support this. I suggest replacing this citation with the following early HDR paper: https://repository.upenn.edu/cis_reports/248/ Aaronh (talk) 20:25, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Added more example exposures[edit]

I've added some example exposures of the HDRI. I can't get the positioning looking nice though. If someone else wants to have a go then be my guest. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deanpemberton (talkcontribs)

I think it wasn't you who added the picture at the beginning of the Article, but IMO, that should be removed. The colors are vomitive, and it isn't a representative example of what HDR is. While I don't like it very much either, the NY shot further down the page is much better in this regard. At the very least, I think, they should be swapped. ~ Polymeris (talk)

Move discussion in progress[edit]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:High dynamic range which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 21:18, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Even though I have been a watcher and participant, this is a confusing situation which I'd need to spend much more time to figure out. Point being is that it is unlikely to obtain the required feedback. IMO proposed changes and discussion regarding them should be located and centered at the page(s) involved.

Splitting the page[edit]

This page is currently mixing multiple topics related to HDR. The main topic developed in the page is the technique of capturing and combining multiple exposures in order to increase the dynamic range that the camera can capture. This topic is big enough to have its own page. Other HDR topics can either be moved to the general page about High dynamic range or to a topic-specific pages such as the High-dynamic-range rendering page or the page about the newer HDR display technology. This will allow every topic to be more deeply developed and this will also reduce the confusion between the different topics. — SH4ever (talk) 18:01, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

With all the edits and the title change, no part requires splitting anymore. SH4ever (talk) 21:23, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 18 December 2021[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Moved. The proposer has asked at WP:CR that this request be treated as WP:OTHEROPTIONS suggests. So the possible options as nominated by the proposer, editor SH4ever, are as follows:

For now, the title will conform to WP:CONCISE and renamed to Multi-exposure HDR capture. Thanks and kudos to the nom for your input, and Happy, Healthy Editing! (nac by page mover) P.I. Ellsworth - ed. put'r there 19:00, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]


High-dynamic-range imagingHDR image capture from multiple exposures

The current naming is not good because high dynamic range imaging is a broader topic that includes capture/creation, encoding and displaying/printing. Except of some minor parts of the lead, this article is entirely focused on the specific technique of capturing HDR images by taking and combining multiple exposures. The broader HDR imaging topic is actually discussed in High dynamic range#Imaging. This article is actually a split of HDR imaging and should thus have a more appropriate naming. SH4ever (talk) 20:55, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In the past HDR imaging was nearly only about the multi-exposures technique, so the article naming made some sense at that time but today HDR imaging goes far beyond that (especially with the advent of HDR-TV), making the old naming no longer valid. SH4ever (talk) 21:14, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
In this book, HDR imaging is treated as a broader topic that includes HDR capture from multiple exposures and also other topics such as HDR displays. At the time the book was written, HDR display only meant "a display with a high contrast". Today the term "HDR display" has an additional meaning and is mainly used for "displays compatible with HDR-TV". HDR-TV is one more topic included by the broader topic HDR imaging; as this 2016 book shows. SH4ever (talk) 15:19, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

For short: "HDR capture from multiple exposures" is a subset of "High-dynamic-range imaging". This Wikipedia page is about "HDR capture from multiple exposures". The Wikipedia page about "High-dynamic-range imaging" is High dynamic range#High-dynamic-range imaging. SH4ever (talk) 17:28, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Other propositions:

HDR capture from multiple exposures: Shorter, still recognizable, less confusions (the can be used for capturing both still images and videos). SH4ever (talk) 15:23, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Alternatively, the page can be named to something like "Multi-exposure High Dynamic Range capture" or "Multi-exposure HDR capture" to make the title shorter and maybe more recognizable. SH4ever (talk) 21:22, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Lead after the move[edit]

After the move, the lead should be slightly changed to fit the new name. I made that change in this draft: Draft:HDR capture from multiple exposures. The rest of the article doesn't need change. SH4ever (talk) 16:51, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Drabacks[edit]

There is a benefits section, so there should also be a drawback section, not just scattered drawbacks. Jidanni (talk) 02:43, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
