Computing HDR images from a sequence of 100 noisy images captured by a 14-bit handheld camera. The noise in the input images is higher in dark regions, as shown in the tone-mapped images. Our approach produces sharp and clean HDR images, and works for complex scenes with large depth variation.

The trajectories of two sample feature points in the scene calculated from optical flow computation. The noticeable difference in the trajectories clearly indicates spatially-varying motion, which is difficult for deblurring approach to work effectively on this scene.
