Default HDR App Head-to-Head-to-Head Test

http://www.zdnet.com/blog/apple/hdr...dr-updated/8165

"I did a casual high dynamic range (HDR) imaging test this morning. Apple HDR blows out the highlights, Pro HDR is heavy-handed and TrueHDR is the best."

Interesting that HDR definitely enhances iPhone photography in the example above, with a backlit, shadowed scene, but, in normal well-lit scenes like the example below, HDR really doesn't add much, at least in casual testing. Of course, this is a very subjective evaluation. Do you have a preference? I personally like the detail exposed by ProHDR.

Of course, at free for Apple HDR (assuming the right iPhone and iOS 4.1), $1.99 for Pro HDR, and $1.99 for TrueHDR, experimentation is inexpensive, and the author does state that he didn't try to fine-tune any of the apps, but simply used point and shoot on automatic mode. Nice to have these capabilities in a mobile phone!
