Looking to buy a new compact camera for climbing/hill days (Sony rx100 seems to be everyone's favorite).
A friend of mine has an HDR function on his samsung phone which has a fantastic effect, particularly on the kinds of photos climbers and hillgoers often take in the UK- moody skies and dark foregrounds. It essentially takes the same photo at multiple exposures and then merges them together, correcting for over & under exposed areas.
Is there any way to achieve this with a compact- is it not part of standard programming by now? The 'functionality' lists in online adverts/ reviews don't seem to feature it.
Not going to carry a tripod and then merge the photos manually now that I've seen how quick it can be done on a smartphone!
