PC Photos Taken with HDR On Look Washed Out and Grey - SDR Is OK

Troubleshooting Hub Legacy Troubleshooting FH4 Troubleshooting

Latest PC version (1.193.24.2) and latest nVidia drivers 411.70 on Windows 10 (1803).
HDR looks fantastic and working very well.
Howver if I take a photo with HDR enabled then the resulting photo looks washed out and grey.
The photo looks washed out in the game straight after I’ve take it and in Forza Hub or on the Forza website.

However if I disable HDR and take a photo the image looks fine, and would be what I expect it to look like with HDR On

Any ideas what’s going on?
I;m assuming it should tone map the HDR image to SDR so is the tone mapping for the photo with HDR on broken?

I am having this exact same issue. Hope it gets fixed.

Thanks for the reply. At least it’s not just me with this.
I do have a workaround though, I’m using the Xbox Game Bar in Windows to take a screenshot. This takes both an SDR and HDR version of the image, so in some ways it’s better and it’s saved to your local drive.

Just wanted to post and confirm I’m having the same issue, was super bummed when I went back to find all the nice photos I’d taken to that point looked horrible :frowning:
