There is a HDR freebie going. I sent the link to Tamlin and he has tried it. The results he has shown are very good so far.
Imaging Luminary is the company (I think) and its developing an excellent HDR program. They are looking for volunteers to download and give them feed back. I have done some work on it and at present consider far superior than the Freeware ones I have written about. The tonemapping is excellent and there is very little haloing in the image.

As I have said I haven't found it a disappointment. They seem to be matching their software against Photomatix. I haven't used Photomatix, but have seen the great tonemapping that people have done. This seems to matching it at the moment. Post your comments on their forum, but let us know what your thoughts are here as well. Maybe a link or show your work.
