(RAW) Exposure bracketing

Export HDR photo as HDR video clip
Currently, there is no easy way to import your true HDR photos from your iPhone into video editing software like Adobe Premiere. Even dedicated video editing programs may present your HDR photos too dark and dull, and true ISO-HDR photos simply don’t show up as they still can’t be interpreted.
Our feature enables you to export your HDR photos as 10-bit HDR video clips. It allows you to incorporate your HDR photos into a HDR video project while maintaining the benefits of true HDR photos.
- In ProCamera, open an HDR image. Tap the Edit button.
- In the Editing studio, press and hold the Save button until the additional saving options appear. Tap the Save New Image As ... button.
- Select the HDR VIDEO CLIP option.
