And decide how many steps and hence incremental on each step. well all that is required is start at point A, keep moving till you reach point B (user specifies it). How each package interprets it can be different - it is not about the format.Ībout "shooting" focus stack on model A vs B. The RAW formats are public anyway? Even GIMP can read it. So while DPP might restrict usage to canon raw files, there is little technical reason not to do focus stack on DPP for all canon camera models.ĭPP should be able to detect points of focus from any canon camera model - it already does - it is recorded in the file and DPP shows it! the tiff's are stunning.įocus stacking has very little to do with raw format - it is detecting points of focus that can be done with micro contrast detection - sort of like a camera does in the first place. The attached image was taken with an EOS 5D mark IV and EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM lens, stacked in DPP4, converted and saved as tff, then resized and converted to jpg for posting (just to save space). I'm assuming that other Canon users who have "in camera" stacking as an option will like it also. You don't get a lot of options through the process, but I am happy so far and will only use Helicon Remote to get the initial shots. I'm impressed with the outcome, but the "touchup" tool is a little clunky.
With this feature now in DPP4, I can edit one RAW image then copy the recipe and paste it to the others, then process the stack with edited RAW files One gripe I have with DPP4 is that you can't embed your RAW recipe in a saved RAW file, at least i can't find a way to do it, and if I needed adjustments in my stacks, it was either reshoot or adjust in DPP4 and convert to tiff in DPP4 and rerun the stack as tiff's in Helicon as opposed to simply editing my RAW files, saving them, then using Helicon Focus to stack the edited RAW files. It turns out that my EOS 5D mark IV is supported, so I loaded a 19 shot stack taken with that camera and an EF 100mm f/2.8L macro lens. When all else fails, read the DPP4 maunual. I started with some stacks taken with the EOS 7D mark II, which didn't work because only certain Canon cameras are supported. Since I seldom use all of DPP4, I just found the Depth Compositing tool and gave it a go. It's quite powerful and packed with features, but it's fairly expensive, so I wouldn't expect anything less. I use Remote to take the stacks via a 10' USB 3x connection to my laptop which transfers RAW (CR2) files to my laptop and opens Helicon Focus to do its thing. I've been "Focus Stacking" for a couple of years now using two programs from Helicon, Helicon Remote and Helicon Focus.
