HDR panorama
With an extended release signal it is also possible to release multi-shots in
the camera for HDR. The camera needs to be programmed in multi-shot
mode and bracketing. The VR Drive must have a release signal time which
is greater than the total time to release the bracketed images in the
camera. This allows a very fast HDR bracketing.
Important:
set the continuous release on your camera and set the required
time for continous release in the VR Drive firmware. Deactivate the
bracketing function in the VR Drive, as this is driven by the camera.
This release signal time must be greater than the shutter speed of the camera for every
image. For example, if the shutter speed of the camera is 1.5 seconds, then the release
signal time must be at least 2 seconds.
Example:
bracketing with 5 images and 3 f-stops difference
