Awesome app!

This is an amazing photo app. I haven’t found any other that has so many effects & filters for HDR photos as this one!! And it’s really soo easy to use. Thank you guys! I’m totally in love with Aurora :)

Terrific HDR tool - very realistic results

One word… wow! I own a couple of other Macphun apps and they all work really well. This new Aurora HDR app though has re-opened my eyes to HDR which I hadn’t tried in a couple of years. I’ve only had it for a few hours, but have gotten great results on single images and multiple [bracketed] photos. Tried on landscape and “urbex-style” shots - very realistic! The presets are fun to explore too.

Finally Natural HDR Results

I have been a closet fan of HDR for a long time and I am happy to see that someone has finally done it right. Most of the time the built in presets for tone mapping hdr images make things look unnatural and fake, which I am not a big fan of, but the base result in Aurora is a great starting point, and even where I have kept most of my images without any need to adjust! If you want you can push things further towards the sureal, but the main thing for me is that the end results are what I intended. I am able to accomplish this in Aurora with just a few clicks! I might have to jump back on the HDR train. Five Stars for great built in presets, natural looking base toning and the flexibility to go wild if you want to.

No Support for RAW Images

Seems like a good program, but this version has no support for RAW images. This should definitely have been mentioned on the page as one would assume that an HDR program would have it. Kind of worthless without it, in my opinion. Fortunately, they have an option to upgrade to the pro version, which is $99.99.

outstanding!

It creates vivid, outstanding results even from regular ‘boring’ pictures. Great presets!

Dosent support RAW format

Had I known it didnt support the RAW format I would have passed on buying it. Uh well, just another program tht might collect dust, little mad it didnt support RAW.

Replaced all other tools

I have used different HDR tools on both Mac and iPad. But they all look like toys in compare with Aurora HDR. For years there was nothing new in this part of photography, and I know that many photographers just like me, stopped doing HDR a lot. Mostly for the lack of simple and powerful software. But now with this tool, I see a lot of people actually coming back. Plus I can see a lot of amateur photographers digging Aurora HDR for its speed and simplicity. Heads up to the developer for launching another great software, I also have noiseless that I use to remove digital noise from suome photos. Just like Noiseless, Aurora is very fast and simple to use. And of course the ability to import your own presets is a winner.
