Most of you are familiar with the HDR craze that’s been around for some time and, while there are many ways to achieve this effect, it’s still a mystery to many. Well, the folks at Oloneo are trying to make it easier with the release of their new HDRengine standalone program (US$59) that’s aimed at both the hardcore HDR crowd and new users who want to get HDR images quickly with a lot of control. Loaded with features, you can import RAW files, merge multiple images/exposures, and also tone map a single exposure.

Bordering the world of DSLRs — and sharing many of the same sophisticated features — is a breed of high-end, compact, point-and-shoot cameras. Leica (www.leica.com) has released one of those: their new V-Lux 3.
Although the V-Lux 3 doesn’t introduce any major new technology, it’s packed with features and its centerpiece is a versatile 24x zoom lens. The DC Vario-Elmarit lens is 4.5–108mm, f/2.8–5.2, and its range is the 35mm equivalent of 25–600mm. That’s a vast reach for stills and very handy for shooting HD videos at 1920×1080 pixels and 60 fps.
