Introduction

What is enfuse
enfuse is:
Enfuse blends differently exposed images of the same scene into a nice output image, without producing intermediate HDR images that are then tonemapped to a viewable image. This simplified process often works much better and quicker than the currently known tonemapping algorithms.
The exposure blending is done using the Mertens-Kautz-Van Reeth exposure fusion algorithm. The basic idea is that pixels in the input images are weighted according to qualities such as proper exposure, good contrast, and high saturation. These weights determine how much a given pixel will contribute to the final image.
Enfuse does not align images for you. Use a tool like Hugin or PanoTools to do this. The TIFFs produced by these programs are exactly what Enfuse is designed to work with.
