Hi,

Can anyone recommend me an HDR plugin for Lightroom 3.

Not looking to spend mega-bucks.
If you can't say something nice about Pentax, you won't say anything at all.

Apparently.

Photomatix comes with a plugin for Lightroom to easily export a set of images to Photomatix for HDR processing.

I have Photomatix and it seems to work well with LR 3. Select the batch of images, right click and 'export' to Photomatix (having installed to enable LR to pick it up). Photomatix then allows to save & re-import into the same folder/ collection it came from so that it sits alongside the constituent files

EDIT - in fact a link to one done with 2 images:

+1 for Photomatix - I got it awhile ago and the results are great on the odd occasion the subject I go for actually suits HDR It is, however, pricey unless you either a) Are a university student or b) Have one in the family.

Alternatively Picturenaut is free (http://www.hdrlabs.com/picturenaut/index.html). I haven't used it myself, but it looks pretty good.

Also look at Hugin. It's free and does both hdr and panoramas.
You can get it here:

Not yet tried it myself though!
