Quick Tip: Why Are My HDR Images Loading up All Warped?

Aurora HDR 2019 by Skyrim was just released today and I have come into a sticky situation. Why is my loaded HDR image coming up with lens distortion when the photos look fine in Adobe Lightroom CC 2018? In this example, I am using 5 bracketed photos taken from my DJI Phantom 4 Pro + for this HDR image.

I found the solution!


I selected Export => Open source files (Aurora HDR 2019), however, when you export using these settings, Lightroom doesn't provide Aurora with the lens corrected images!


Instead, go to Export => Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments (Aurora HDR 2019) and now when your images load in Aurora they will be lens corrected and beautiful!

Now that my images are loading in properly, I am off to the races!
