Merging batches of photos into HDR images
If you use auto-bracketing on a regular basis, you may accumulate
many sets of photos that can be processed as HDR (high dynamic
range) images. You can use the Batch Merge feature to quickly merge
each of your bracketed sets into HDR images. You can then evaluate
which sets make good candidates for the more powerful HDR tools in
the Exposure Merge feature. In some cases, Batch Merge might be the
only HDR processing you need to do.
Batch Merge organizes photos into sets, based on the time between
photos (within a defined timeframe) or a defined number of photos
per set.
