Ok
I'm completly newbie to hdri.
So my question is do I need special cameras or more than one camera to make hdri images?
Does it need any special hardware to be made?
Or one digi camera even without manual shutter is enough?

The other question is can the same results be achived using self-illumination map instead of hdri?
I'm sorry for this one but I don't know anything about hdri but
its 32bit artichitecture.
Thank you
Sepehr

Anybody?

Let me tell you that it's a while I think usual textures are just ok
in still images not in animation and wanted to know if hdri images
can help it.

try that first then ask more :D

It's SI|xsi but it's the same in every other program if you know how to work with it....

In terms of camera equipment, all you need is a tripod and a camera that can be set to manual exposure length.

That way creating the series of images required for the HDRI.

You might want to check out HRDI Shop from www.debevec.org

That has some tutorials aswell.
