I tried it on some sets of shots that I had processed with Photomatix Pro. The lightroom versions were quite good, it certainly is faster.

One thing is Photomatix pro will process a single file and help bring out shadow detail.

You can create a copy in Lightroom and use it with the original to get Lightroom to process them.


For some photos I preferred the Photomatix version, while on others Lightroom did the best job. Because it is so fast it is easy to try Lighroom HDR and also Photomatix then pick the best product

I just spent some time playing with LR6s new HDR feature. At first
glance, I am very happy with it.  It seems to do pretty much exactly
what I want in HDR, it takes several DNG files and combines them into
another DNG file with expanded dynamic range, and no tone mapping.

I'm not sure, but I also suspect that it would work well for stacking
astro shots as well by turning off the anti-ghosting features.

I tried it quickly on two photos from last summer and whether the
results are much better than I was able to get by carefully using the
brush tool in lightroom, it was a LOT easier.  I did use the brush to
bring up the clarity on the sky to help bring out the clouds.
