Hi All,
I'm just getting into this HDR thing (and being careful to not overdo it!) and have started using the Nik HDR Pro Plug-in. Pretty neat software and the Photoshop version works fine for me. But it would be much more convenient to use it within Lightroom 3. The plug-in has worked okay for me in Lightroom a couple of times on two different systems, and then starts to freeze up after it loads a couple of images. I tried uninstalling the plug-in and then reinstalling and it worked again a couple of times before freezing up again. Both of my systems are running Mac OSX Lion with 4GB of RAM. Not the fastest dual core processors- but the PS plug-in works fine for me.
I sent Nik support a message a few days ago and still have not heard from them. At your prices you can do better Nik! Anyway, I am suspicious that maybe OSX Lion does not play nice with LR and HDR Efex? I did not use the plug-in before upgrading to Lion, so I just don't know about the compatibility issue.
Has anyone else had a similar problem and can enlighten me on how to fix it, or even tell me I just need to wait for a Lion compatible update?
Thanks! -Brent
