Abstract

A microscopy system for generating an HDR image comprises a microscope for capturing a plurality of raw images that show a scene with different image brightnesses and a computing device configured to generate the HDR image by combining at least two of the raw images. The computing device is also configured to set coefficients for different regions in the raw images depending on objects depicted in those regions, wherein it is defined via the coefficients whether and to what extent pixels of the raw images are incorporated in the HDR image. The computing device is further configured to generate the HDR image by combining the raw images based on the set coefficients. A method generates an HDR image by combining raw images based on coefficients that are set depending on objects depicted in the raw images.
