Re: A seasonal stack.

Thank you.
Yes it was a planned experiment. I was very pleased with the outcome and will be using the technique again with real plants.
I used an f/1.2 lens fully open to achieve the bokeh and selective focus bracketing of the camera.

Re: Problem with Update installation for 8.1.0

But even when I klicked "Help - check for updates", I learned only that there are "no updates found". This is intentional, as we only enable automatic updates to a new version of Helicon Focus when we're certain it's absolutely stable and problem-free. This is why not every new ...

Re: Problem with Update installation for 8.1.0

8.1.0 ? I use Helicon Focus 7.7.4 Pro and I was already wondering why no updates were announced for so long. But even when I klicked "Help - check for updates", I learned only that there are "no updates found". Now,looking into the forum, I see that version 8.1.0 is discussed. I...

the installation proceeds to the point where sample images JPGs are installed and then the PNG files.

You can hand delete the files
Best work around is to uninstall and then re-install

I'm running Norton AV

Thank you ... I am happy to hear that my observations are correct. I can see that my "problem" lies in LightRoom and not Helicon

Re: Exposure alignment

I agree that we perhaps need this type of functionality. I have noticed that if I make a stack from an object where the image contrast is very high at the edge of the main object OR when I use a StacKShot jig (so I move the camera rather than the focus adjust) Helicon can get confused

DNG export from Lightroom not working as expected

I'm working with RAF (Fujifilm RAW) images taken with UV fluorescence, so the images are noisy and mostly underexposed. My expected workflow. ... 1) Crop one image in LR to expected size based on the visible light image captured at the same time. 2) Synchronize in LR the cropping across all of the i...
