In-Camera Focus Stacking will automatically record eight images of a subject while shifting the plane of focus slightly, then composite these exposures into a single frame to exhibit an extended depth of field.

My Olympus OMD EM1 Mk 3 does it all in camera but also creates a stack you can use in Photoshop Thank you so much for the article, I really had no idea how that rail worked.

Got mine after reading the article on DIY Photography website: you can get a Novoflex but that's 600$ and at that price you better just get some kit to have an electronic focus rail. I will have a look at the focus rail for sure.īut you get what you pay for, and i got more frustration than good results (my experience) because its not built to perfection. One of the things I noticed is that if you select a different focusing point the lens tend to shift its focal length ever so slightly. Wow, beautiful images!! Also thanks for the instructions, I will see if I can get better results. Next go for Align and Balance (Thourough) followed by one of the Stacking Options (I mostly use Pyramid, but you can choose Select All and see which one comes out best. Select New and choose the fotos you want to stack. Tdwrsa-2 edited this topic 27 months ago. Some cameras nowadays have such a function built in. It's quite tricky to get it going but a nice challenge. 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.

Originally posted at 12:38PM, 15 January 2021 PDT 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.
