Really ?
I'm not satisfied by the Lightroom HDR module, it doesn't manage the multi exposure very well.

Capture One just got a new panorama and hdr stacking module/tool.

Agreed. I don't know about the latest version but when I tried it a while ago it was rubbish.
More often than not the shadows were blocked up and the highlights were burnt out, exactly what an HDR app is not supposed to do.

I am surprised to hear that. I use it a lot and have never had a problem.
For me, it always manages to include the whole dynamic range its output file.

Perhaps you expect too much?
Whatever app you use, you are always going to have to adjust the merged file manually to get the result you want.

If you are looking for a natural looking result then I don't think that you will find anything significantly better than lightroom.
But if you do, then tell us what it is.

yes with LR and 3 or 5 bracketed views, I see that it doesn't use the dynamic of the provided views. If I disable the"auto seetings"the result is poor. The shadows might be opened with the +1 or +2 stops but not and when the "auto settings" is enabled, it boost the shadow tuning instead of use the highlighted views.
Most of the time I do it manually with PS but it is time consuming.
I like natural HDR and not awful HDR like in the past with photomatix... but I never try Aurora, maybe I should forget if the result are terrible.
