How to: Focus Stacking

Overview

Learn how to use focus stacking to shoot sharp, detailed macro and product images. In this online course we will introduce the equipment needed and how to setup you camera to use focus stacking and achieve great results.

We will also cover looking at differences involved in standalone or tethered shooting when focus stacking.

For delegates with a D780, D850, Z 6, Z 7 and Z 6 & Z 7II we will also be covering in depth which settings will help you get the most from the focus shift shooting features available in these cameras.

Latest course reviews...

More to focus stacking than the menu settings

I enjoyed this course because not only did the trainers tell us what settings are advised on the camera but they took us back several stages to get the best pics having used focus stacking, ie checking the ultimate aperture and focal length for the lens you are using. Focus breathing was a new concept too. So obvious now I know.
