Jeezus Krist Algi, never let an opportunity go to waste, eh? :lol: It's not a big download to get Quicktime, and there are one or two sites that still use it so it's probably worth doing... [Edit - installed QT and site still doesn't work... I take it all back! :evil:] Would be nice to see you...

I'm finding my m 50 1.4 easier to do video with than the fa 50 1.4, manual focus is great and smooth! anybody out there with a kx, kr or k5 would be advised to try out a shoe mounted video light... (I'm using a Sony model which I replaced the Sony hotshoe with a standard hotshoe with lock ring) ins...

What are you saving for now?
Nothing exotic camera / photographically wise. I need to repair the frost / snow damage to my back garden before the onset of winter. The top half of my garden needs new concrete / slabs or block paving . What was installed some years back has started to break up very very badly :( Once that...

What are you saving for now?
1500 and 750 watt/second flash heads, I cant be doing with PTTL etc. I want powerful output and for the shortest possible duration. You can never have too much power! :lol: I'm going the other route, I want a set of Elinchrom d-light 200 or 400's with softboxes and a deep dish octa light....... ...

Focus Stacking
I have been inspired to try some focus stacking. I have tried it before but found doing the processing by hand had lots of problems because, even with the DFA100 macro lens, the framing changes with a shift in focus setting. I understand that Photoshop CS4, but not PSE, can sort this out for y...

Focus Stacking
Just so you can see how it was done here are some small versions of the original shots. Notice how the frame coverage gets a little bit wider with each shot: Focus Point 1 Focus Point 2 Focus Point 3 Focus Point 4 Focus Point 5 Focus Point 6 Focus Point 7 ...

Focus Stacking
That's an interesting use of the technique on a non-macro subject Glynn. Good job, well executed. I've used it to stack images of a macro subject and in that case, rather than change the lens focus, I move the whole camera + lens + ringlight on a macro slide rail. Some photographers even use a...

Focus Stacking
I find it interesting that multiple exposures can be used very effectively to achieve greater depth of field, while over I've been painstakingly going in the opposite direction to reduce the apparent depth of field by increasing the field of view. Both techniques need patience and some very cle...

... Here's one I did of a wasp nest to show it's use in macro work, it's made up of 22 images stacked using CombineZM, the predecessor to CombineZP. Peter, That is a fantastic image and definitely some inspiration for me to have go using stacking with close macro subjects. Many thanks, Glyn

I had not thought about going the other way. I have used stitching to create some huge landscape panoramas where of course I tried to keep ea...

I have CS4 but never seen the photo stacking option :? Will relook for it !! I downloaded the CombineZP file though so either way it'll be covered ! One thing with photo stacking, I've sometimes wondered why, as when shooting a non macro scene, like the flower shot, then would a uber small ape...

Focus Stacking
Much neater than my garden, I'm a follower of the chaos approach. I think that one day general-use cameras will just take what is effectively video, you'll wave it in the general direction of the scene (possibly while moving along) and it will sample loads of image data. Then the stored data wil...
