Hello ! I'm often using the tone mapping module with non-HDR photos to reduce the global contrast & improve the local contrast. It can give great results with the right settings. I have one problem though, it's very hard edges on high contrast lines. This line is present no matter if I soften the effect, I just don't know how to get rid of it while keeping the right output. I can get a pretty similar result with local contrast, pushing the shadows & playing with the curve, but it's more work. The tone mapping module can give pretty good results in no time on plenty of photos, I'm lazily using it a lot ;)
I'm wondering is anybody would have some tricks to deal with that ? And if it's supposed to be a normal behavior of the module also. Maybe it can be improve one way or the other.
