MERGE Multiple Exposures in Darktable! Auto Exposure Bracketing

[@fnlgorchinsky]

That is terrific! I've got to try it. Thank you

[@jacobswing]

@@fnlgorchinsky so glad it's helpful to you!

[@MrNoipe]

no point in having a fully exposed image (ie pure white) in your stack

[@jacobswing]

@@MrNoipe agreed. The point of this tutorial was to show how to combine them in darktable rather than best practices while shooting AEB photos

Only 3 images are enough in your case and better to use a comercial application

[@DerAndi1984]

What would be the advantages of commercial software that would actually be worth paying for?

Hi, with DT 4.8 when i merge 3 pictures DT generate a dark dng based on the Darken file ? In my case raf files.

@@florentd.5817 They always look dark to begin with, but do not worry. What you are not understanding is that the merged image is actually a very large 32 bit raw file that you can manipulate very aggressively if you want. Go ahead and see for yourself. Use the exposure module to brighten it and you'll see what I mean. Once you have finished just export it in your chosen format. All the best.
