Abstract
Apparatus and methods are provided to create high dynamic range images by passing an incoming image through a color-neutral separation prism having at least three channels to produce a corresponding number of full color fractionated images, each channel aligned with a corresponding image capturing device for which an ISO sensitivity is selected to simultaneously achieve a different exposure value for each fractionated image and image capturing device, referred to as exposure bracketing, and recombining the simultaneously collected fractionated images to create a high dynamic range image. The apparatus and methods may be used for still photography or motion pictures.
