Helicon focus object examples software#
With this software the camera can take x foto's while shifting the focus plane a bit with every shot.

Have also done stacking using a bridge Camera (Canon SX40) with CHDK software loaded in camera. the rose is the size of my thumb nail and I shoot it with the laowa 100mm 2:1 using the NiSi macro focus rail which work pretty good. Pretty nice, I'll have to look at combineZP as i never heard of it.Įnded with 54 but initially I took 72, of course some were too blurry to start of finish and some were not needed. I have used Photoshop and I have used CombineZP which is also free.Įxceptionally well done! I still need to figure out all the workings of CombineZP, I still get mixed results using trial and error. But I am still in the learning phases of doing it. I found that results is not necessarily so easy to get with photo stacking. That was simply how many times I've clicked. If I remember correctly the maximum that I've used was 32 or 34, but not because of any program limitations. I do focus stacking in Photoshop Elements and quite happy with the results.

I stacked 54 pictures of the rose with both Zerene and Helicon just for comparison, both results were pretty good. Here's a list of paid and open source options: There is multiple software that can do this, while some are specialized like Helicon Focus or Zerene Stacker, it can also be done in Photoshop and Affinity Photo.
