Now that LRM has the ability to do HDR photos with the built in camera, it would be nice to also be able to produce HDR images with imported photos. It should be fairly easy to implement since the coding is already done for the camera.
It will be great if merge to hdr function could work on at least lightroom for ipad. It would be useful as I transfer my photos taken my non hdr canon camera to ipad and edit on it.
Salve. Ho scattato in HDR e dalla fotocamera l' app Camera Connect mi ha rilevato 3 immagini. Queste 3 immagini a diversa esposizione sono state a loro volta salvate in Lightroom mobile. Come faccio a unirle in una sola immagine? Grazie.
You currently can only do this on Lightroom Desktop. Can you vote for the feature request on Mobile by pressing Upvote as the top, when this post is merged with the main thread.
Lightroom Mobile has improved dramatically with recent updates, but one feature is still glaringly missing, and I've no doubt it's something many users would love to have.
That feature is the ability to merge images for extended exposure range, or for panoramas.
Of course this is available on desktop versions but many of us are using iPad extensively these days.
It's a feature that is available on other Apps, like Capture One, so I'm sure it's not a technology issue.
I'm sorry but how in the world did this get to be the accepted answer regarding photomerging / stitching? The examples provided (fielnames, syncing, metadata) speak nothing panoramas. I wish I could downvote an answer.
The original request is for something that seems so basic and yet not there for tablet/mobile users. There is no reason photomerge should not be included for iPads at the very least.
My guess is that for some reason a completely different thread with an already correct answer was merged into this one and the whole thread adopted the other thread's correct for that thread's answer. Obviously this answer has nothing to do with the current main thread. Likely the other thread also had a small subquestion about panoramas on tablets. Obviously modern iPads have more than enough power to merge panoramas and merge HDR. For some reason it's not a priority for Adobe. No clue why not. Lots of things I think are really important are not a priorty for Adobe at all.
It's maddening trying to find out what I can and cannot do with Lightroom mobile, I'm an avid hiker but sitting in front of a laptop hurts my back so the iPad is a great solution to editing. Unfortunately I can't merge images and I'm looking for other software that is more compatible with my condition.
LR on iPad is my travel solution but it's missing the most important features: panorama and HDR. With M2-4 processors on iPads there is enough power to process. I hope Adobe will integrate it soon.
The iPad app needs to have complete feature parity with the desktop LR app. I can go out right now and buy an M4 iPad Pro, but on that device I can't HDR or pano merge, my masking options are limited for no reason at all, and I can't do AI denoising. Why? Auto mask for brush has been in the desktop app for years, but the one device where it makes the most sense, the iPad, doesn't have this option. Why? Why can't I use the object masking tool on the iPad? Why don't we have all the skin, eye, teeth etc masking options? I can do more on my wife's £300 windows laptop than I can on an iPad with many times the performance, and that cannot be correct. And please let us update our portfolio websites from an iPad. The fact that I can't do this simple task from my iPad is absolutely insane.
I know this feature has long been requested, but honestly, I'm running an iPad Pro with Apple Silicon "M" chip and I still need to open my MacBook to perform what should be very straightforward operations. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!
I realize this is a couple of years later, but Merge to HDR can be done using Lightroom CC on a laptop, though (still!!!) not on iPad. Even iPad Pro. Very frustrating of Adobe to be so negligent. I am posting this in case others come across the same questions.
