Here’s another image taken with the little EOS M and 22mm combination. This is a three exposure handheld HDR of this beautiful church at sundown. Although this is only at f/2.8, you can see the detail is very high throughout the frame. Here is the process – I combined three exposures (2,0,-2 EV) in Photoshop HDR Pro, but as a 32bit HDR. This limits editing options, but I was able to bring the file back into Lightroom, then reopen it as a 16bit image to do all of the color editing. This process allows for a much more realistic HDR image that isn’t cartoonish. I enhanced the colors in my trusty Alien Skin Exposure 5, with a few more tweaks back in Lightroom. The finished product is an image I am proud of. I will be writing a full review of the little EOS M shortly.
