I've had this HDR software for a while and I'm warming up to it. 0, +3, -3 HDR projects 4 (64-Bit)

Good start, Rudolf. IMHO, the trees and shaded water look fine, not over cooked nor over sharpened. The disappointing areas are the bright water and the sky, which on my screen appear to be blown out (too white with no detail). I assume this was a three exposure HDR and with your settings I would have expected the sky to be better exposed. Maybe it was a bright overcast sky and you would have been pleased even more with the results of a five shot exposure with the exposures of your choice. Good start though.

I'm in total agreement with you, the sky did suffer greatly. I will try to redo the HDR at a different setting.

The blown out sky is the common reason to shoot RAW to work from using any HDR program. It's best to have about a five stop spread and then choose the combination of three to process with HDR. Experience now the best teacher, YES?

The little Sony RX100 loves to jump off settings I have noticed.
Below images were taken with the same camera in raw processed through HDR Projects 4.

Much better with a different sky. Well done indeed. The camera may be jumping off settings if you have set to on auto rather than controlling the settings yourself. However, if you were setting things up manually you may need to read your manual again or ask a question of those folks who use the same model.
Yep, so far so good.

If you're looking for an automated HDR, then it will leave you wanting many times. Blend them yourself with three frames you choose from 5-7 frames shot to find the combination that IS IT. I have a feeling your Sony doesn't jump settings, but that you were using Auto ISO for those two shots and as the framing of them I see good cause for your camera to change ISO between the shots. Whatever it was, it wasn't Manual which holds your settings even reframing for the following shots. For many subjects I shoot a bracket of three in Av, ISO as low as needed and review the histogram, adjust as needed in Manual and the shoot is on. This assures a lighting consistency by knowing the tool.
