Hello! After recent talk on the WWDC2023 about HDR support and finding this documentation page on Applying Apple HDR effect on photos, I became very interested in the HDR Gain Map format. From documentation page it is clear how we can restore original HDR from SDR and Gain Map representation, but my question is - how from HDR we can convert back to the SDR + Gain Map representation? As I understand right know, conversion from HDR to SDR + Gain Map includes two steps: Tone mapping of HDR for getting correct SDR When we have both HDR and SDR, from equation in the documentation page we can calculate Gain Map Am I correct? If so, what tone mapping algorithm for HDR -> SDR conversion is used right know? Can't find any information about this in the internet:( Would be very grateful for your response!
