This is a set of 2 HDRIs captured from real-world Elinchrom lights (with and without the diffuser) that you can use as textured light sources in your CG scenes. The images come as 32bit ACEScg and sRGB exr (4096 x 4096) files and should be suitable for all renderers. Just attach them to an area light, a mesh light or to an emissive shader, and hit render.

Provided with the download is also a mid-resolution modelled set of lights that you can use in your scenes for more believable renders. The light has been textured using the provided tonemapped images, so they look fancy in your renders 😉

File Format: exr (sRGB, ACEScg), ma (2020+), FBX, Alembic

Overview

Lights

The HDRIs have been provided in both ACEScg and sRGB colour space.

Renders

Please note, the Grey and Chrome balls have not been provided with the lights. You can grab them for free here:

 

RAW data

For this set of lights, you can also choose to download the RAW data (CR2). The HDRIs were shot with a Canon 5Ds with and without an ND filter. The RAW data will allow you to process the data using your internal colour management tools and workflow.

For each light, you’ll have a total of 56 bracketed images to play with (28 x with an ND filter, 28 x without an ND filter). Overkill I know 😉

 

For each light, we’ve also shot a grey and chrome ball and a Macbeth chart, so you can process, grade and expose to your heart’s content. The set includes a slated shot, a evenly exposed single image, and then 7 multi-bracketed images.
