Image Stacking Software
Helicon Focus
Helicon Focus is a Focus stacking software:
Focus Stacking is a post-processing technique that extends the depth of field in your photographs.
To use this technique, you take several images of the same scene, focusing your lens on a different part of the object for each shot. Then you can use Helicon Focus to blend all the sharp areas together and
produce a completely sharp image.
• Do you need more depth of field than you can get by just stopping down?
• Do you avoid stopping down because it makes your images soft from diffraction?
• Do you want a beautiful blurred background, but still see your whole subject sharp?
A glass with a water and an overhanging cloth inside it functions as a drip feeder.
Place a small sauce tray (or something like it) underneath to catch the droplets and make them bounce out of the surface. You will also need a speedlight, ideally at a low power setting, to freeze motion and capture a crisp image.
