What is an AI image merger?
AI HDR editing in Luminar Neo lets you combine up to 10 exposure-bracketed images into one HDR photo with expanded dynamic range and natural colors. You can also apply the same technology to a single photo — AI enhances detail, balances light, and gives you an HDR-style result without the need for brackets.
Who can benefit from AI HDR Merge?
AI HDR Merge is especially handy for creators who often deal with contrasty scenes:
It’s a practical tool for anyone who wants natural, detailed photos without heavy manual editing.
What are the advantages of HDR Merge over Aurora HDR?
HDR Merge is built directly into Luminar Neo, so you don’t need a separate app for HDR editing. Unlike Aurora HDR, it integrates with Neo’s catalog, AI tools, and creative features, giving you an all-in-one workflow. This makes it a convenient HDR software for Mac and Windows, combining image merging, noise reduction, and full photo editing in a single place.
Why is Luminar Neo HDR Merge the best HDR software for your photos?
Luminar Neo combines multiple exposures into a single high-dynamic-range image while keeping colors natural and details sharp. Unlike basic HDR effects photo editors, it supports RAW files, works with AI-powered editing, and lets you fine-tune the final result using the full range of Luminar Neo’s creative adjustments.
Will batch processing be available in HDR Merge?
HDR Merge in Luminar Neo does not support batch merging of multiple sets of photos. However, you can sync adjustments to already created HDR images and export them in batches:
How to edit HDR photos with Luminar Neo photo merging software?
After merging your bracketed shots with the HDR Merge tool in Luminar Neo, the new HDR image appears in your catalog. From there, you can edit it like any other photo using Neo’s full set of tools, including color correction, detail enhancement, and creative filters.
Does the HDR merging tool support RAW image files?
Yes. HDR bracketing software in Luminar Neo works with RAW as well as JPEG files, giving you the best quality and maximum flexibility when creating HDR photos.
