SNS-HDR
What it is
SNS-HDR is image-processing software for creating HDR images from photo sequences and processing individual images. It reads JPEG, TIFF, RAW files including DNG, OpenEXR, and Radiance HDR. For exposure sequences, it can align source images and reduce ghosting and chromatic aberration. Editing options include masks, presets, project saving and restoration, and batch processing; it also supports 360° panorama processing. Its controls and presets are intended to produce natural-looking results. Listed outputs include JPEG, TIFF, TIFF-8, TIFF-16, SNSX, HEIC, and HEIC-10, with HEIC output available on macOS. It runs on Windows and macOS, with stated requirements of Windows 10 64-bit or newer, or macOS 14 or newer on Apple Silicon. SNS-HDR integrates with Adobe Lightroom Classic as a plug-in or external editor, but not cloud-based Lightroom. Lite is freeware with a commercial license. Home costs €30 a month with a non-commercial license, while Professional costs €85 a month with a commercial license. The Home Lightroom plug-in handles one series at a time; Professional adds series splitting and quiet mode, and batch processing is a Pro feature.
