Hello,
I'm getting artifacts around the edges when using helicon focus. The stacked images were tooked using Helicon remote with Stackshot. I've tried all three rendering methods and B gets "best" results and C is the worst. both A and C look like there is motion blurr in focused image, even though in stacked version I made sure the camera is completely steady (I leave 3 second pause between shots).

Re: artifacts in focused image
Thanks for the stack. It is evident that viewpoint moves during shooting process. The program is not able to align all parts of the image at the same time. When shooting extreme macro it is advised to keep entrance pupil of the lens at the same position. Please see the following link for details: http://www.heliconsoft.com/forum/viewto ... f=9&t=1141
Re: artifacts in focused image
Well I'm using Stackshot which moves the camera forwards and backwards, how can I avoid moving entrance pupil then? the weird thing is that if I move the camera closer where all the object is in frame (everything is in focus) the artifacts don't show. Also, I've been taking pictures of small rocks (whole object is in frame and no problem then as well.

Re: artifacts in focused image
I think the problem arises only for the scenes where some parts are close to the lens and others are far away. You can render the stack and the save web animation from the saving tab. You will see how scene is modified though the stack.
