Photoshop Help

[Monkey_beast_182]

I'm a recent newbie to the Photoshop cause, but I have a few problems that I've not been able to work around yet.

I was looking at some of the HDR pictures that everyone posted and thought I'd have a go. Got loads of pictures from a trip to Australia I did a few years ago.

I copied a picture I had taken, and set one to exposure -2 and one to exposure +2, and then ran the "merge to HDR" thingy in Photoshop. However, it didn't prompt me to enter the exposure manually becuase the original photo was taken on my Digimax V4 and embedded the exposure setting on the file header. Because of this, it read the exposure value for the picture from the header, and by-passed the user settings - even though i'd manually tweaked the exposure. I've tried saving in various formats, but always come back to this problem.

Does anyone know how I can get around this, or remove the header information about my camera?

Thanks

Open your jpeg - select all - Copy - file new - ok - paste image. That should strip out all the exif data.

Or file place?

the easiest option is always the one that never comes to you! That'd work wouldn't it! I don't know why I hadn't thought of trying that!

Cheers!
