How to reduce file size

Post by rtcary »

I shot a Focus Stack of 10 and ran it with Helicon. The result was a 200 MB file - looks great - but what is the best way to reduce the file yest keep the information.

Hello Todd,

thank you for your post.

Helicon Focus preserves the size and resolution of source images.

So if you are processing raw source files, you have options to save to jpeg, tiff, tiff with compression and dng (if you've got Pro license).

The only option among the above mentioned that will allow to reduce the size of the output is jpeg.

I finally got around to modifying my portfolio (a 10 page PDF full of very high quality images), and I'm trying to get it slashed from over 100 megabytes to at least below 20 or 10 for email attachment restrictions.
