HDRI vs Area Light Textures

What's the difference between Greyscalegorilla HDRI and light textures?

Macro DOF - HDRI Euro Collage

HDRI

Greyscalegorilla HDRI are panoramic images of real world locations and true-to-life studios and skies.

HDRI are used to quickly create realistic environmental lighting in 3D, whether that is in a studio, outdoors, or even in space.

Area Light Textures

Area Light Maps and Gobo textures have a high-dynamic range, but are used with individual area lights in 3D software.

Lighting textures allow pinpoint precision and realistic lighting conditions as if you were pointing a real light at your 3D object.

The Power of HDRI for photoreal 3d renders

HDRIs capture a wide range of luminance values, which allows for more beautiful and subtle variations in lighting and shadows. This helps 3D renders look more realistic and believable.
