If you're not working with 360 imagery, you can also apply the above method to standard bracketed photography ( don't tone map the image) and export it as EXR/HDR. Then load that HDRI into blender with the usual methods (World surface texture etc). For most HDRIs the loss in precision is negligible.
You can reduce file size with EXR by choosing the half-float preset, which will encode to 16-bit half float rather than 32-bit. Now use File>Export and choose OpenEXR or Radiance HDR for your export format. This won't clip any bright tones above the 0-1 range so don't worry about this. You can also change the base exposure of the HDRI by adding an Exposure adjustment. Don't forget to remove the projection once you've finished editing. You can enter live projection via Layer>Live Projection>Equirectangular Projection which makes it easier to edit in perspective. Once it has completed, you will be presented with your unmapped 360 image with no tone mappingĪt this point, you can retouch the image if required using various tools like the Inpainting Brush Tool. Uncheck "Tone map HDR image" and possibly choose not to align images either (since this may crop the image slightly which you need to avoid for a full 2:1 ratio 360 image) Use File>New HDR Merge and add your images. Affinity Photo cannot stitch a series of images into a 360 equirectangular image (you would want Hugin or PTGui for that), but it can HDR merge and retouch in 32-bit linear unbounded colour format.įor example, have you taken a series of bracketed exposures with a 360 camera? If so: Hey it depends on what you're referring to with the creation process really. Thanks to anyone that can throw me a video or more detailed explanation!

I did find some documentation from Affinity, but there was just not very much info on it and I still am a bit confused on how to correctly set this up. Is anyone here familiar with the process of creating HDRi maps in Affinity Photo for 3d modeling? I am struggling to find info on the correct process.
