Photomerge Exposure

Use Photomerge Exposure to efficiently handle scenes in photos with exposure challenges. You can blend two photos
together to get a perfectly exposed photo. For example, if you have a photo with a window in the background and you
want a perfect photo with the following properties:

•

A good exposure of the scenery outside the window.

•

A good exposure of the darker objects inside the room.

In such a scenario, you often end up with either overexposed scenery outside the window or underexposed objects
inside the room.

To ensure that you get a perfect photo, do the following:

•

Take two or more photos of the same scene with different exposures. For best results, take the photos at different
exposure values with minimum shakes. For example:

•

You can take two or more photos with the flash turned on to properly expose the subject (the objects inside the
room).

•

You can then take one photo with the flash turned off to properly expose the background (the scenery outside
the window).

You can use Exposure Bracketing in your camera to capture the same subject with a number of shots with
different exposure settings.

•

Blend the photos to create a perfectly exposed photo.

Photomerge Exposure enables blending the two photos together to get a perfectly exposed photo.

Photomerge Exposure can be done in the following modes:

•

Automatic mode

•

Manual mode

To obtain best results while using the Automatic mode, use photos that are shot at different exposure values, using
Exposure Bracketing. To obtain best results while using the Manual mode, use photos shot with flash turned on and

flash turned off.
