Sample Images

Our sample images demonstrate the excellent image quality that is produced by our fully automatic capturing and stitching process. All HDR sample images are unretouched and unchanged, every pixel is original as generated by the LizardQ panoramic camera system and the LizardQ Stitcher.

Use the free LizardQ Viewer to view the HDRI samples on your own PC.


All sample images have a resolution of 14140 x 7070 pixels (equirectangular geometry). They are provided in two file formats:

HDR:
HDRThis is the native output format used by the LizardQ Stitcher. It is also known as Radiance or RGBE file format. It is widely used for storing HDR content and has the familiar *.hdr file extension.
JPEG:
JPEGThis is a standard JPEG file which is automatically generated by tone mapping the HDR file. A thumbnail image with reduced resolution is also produced.

Actual image processing times have been measured using a MacBook Pro (model of late 2011, Intel Core i7-2760QM @2.4 GHz, AMD Radeon HD 6700M, SSD). High performance desktop machines will perform even faster.
