Steve, if I'm shooting Canon 1 DX2's will this presentation of yours be beneficial to me, since Canon doesn't have Focus Shift built in? I usually use live view and move the focus box around.
If you would like to post, you'll need to register. Note that if you have a BCG store account, you'll need a new, separate account here (we keep the two sites separate for security purposes).
Thank you!I don't have a Focus Shift camera (D500) but I bought the video and learned a lot. My manual focus stacking technique will definitly benefit.
Thanks so much - I'm really glad it helpedI have a Z6 with focus shift and I use some older lenses on my D750 and do the manual focus point selection. The biggest benefit I got from the course was on how to handle your images within the stacking software and processing steps. Truly worth the time and the minor cost.
You are welcome. This was a worthwhile investment as are your books. Your speaking, teaching and writing style are understandable. well-spoken and easy to follow. The course format with the main and added features are easy to watch and a good length for leatnning. Your books are practical and easy to read. You are one of three pros whose stuff really works for me. Keep it up.Thanks so much - I'm really glad it helped
We do talk about it and once nice thing with Focus Shift Shooting as opposed to doing it manually is that the automated system can get it done in seconds - so it minimizes the problem of movement in a lot of cases (not every case, but I use it in situations where I never would have tried manual stacking).OK I am just a big dummy. I manually grab frames then use the automatic stacking function in PS. My problem is dealing with movement of clouds, leaves and critters. I assume this will teach me how to deal with these issues also?
Ok great I am very interested in focus shift shooting and will be taking this on as time permits. I am getting back to work after being off for months and it is killing me....lolWe do talk about it and once nice thing with Focus Shift Shooting as opposed to doing it manually is that the automated system can get it done in seconds - so it minimizes the problem of movement in a lot of cases (not every case, but I use it in situations where I never would have tried manual stacking).
