HDR support in Zoner Photo Studio X opens a whole new chapter in photography. Once you’ve seen true HDR, you’ll never want to go back to normal SDR photography. You will want that full dynamic range with all the deep shadows, bright highlights, and rich colors. Learn how you can edit HDR photos to print or to upload to the internet or online photo galleries.

In part one of our miniseries on color management in Zoner Photo Studio X, we described the customizations you can make in the Color Management tab of the Preferences.

Color management (a Color Management System, or CMS) ensures that colors remain as consistent as possible throughout the digital chain (typically camera > monitor > printer). For many years, color management was only used in the professional sphere, because it required fairly expensive hardware, and ordinary users didn’t actually have a use for it. But with the rise of digital photography, and with it the wide availability of high-quality viewing and printing equipment, color management has become a part of a growing number of applications.
