I'm presently bidding on a Adobe Photoshop Element 2020 as my HP Envy 4520 prints only 8X10s. I know a little about it but not enough to do it alone?

In learning more of my camera capabilities and at the same time new'ish' to Lightroom, I'm trying the HDR Merge feature. I set the Canon 7ti, for the 3 exposure bracket shots. I, for the time being, shoot in RAW only, since I wasnt really using my jpeg versions anyway. After merging the 3 shots, they look terribly noisy, which I figure, comes from the darker pictures. The question is, should one edit to their best, the 3 original shots first, then merge, or merge the 3 then edit? Would not editing the original 3 take away the 'features' of using 3 different exposures?

What I do is put my camera on a tripod & set it at the lowest possible ISO then use shutter speed to lighten are darken each individual image combine them then edit final image

I'm not quite sure what you are doing but you might try watching a couple of YouTube videos.
