What is the difference between HDR, EXR and SDR?

Created by Irina Manoila, Modified on Sun, 16 Nov at 12:25 PM by Irina Manoila

SDR (Standard Dynamic Range) is traditional video with a limited range of brightness and colour.


HDR (High Dynamic Range) is a newer standard with a much wider range of brightness and colours, creating a more realistic and vivid image.


EXR is a professional image file format used to store individual video frames at the highest quality, preserving all the HDR data for editing.
