A few shots from my home made lightbox

Post by dearis »

Hi there

I finished my lightbox last week but tonight was my first chance to use it. Here are a few quick shots. Comments and critacisms welcome. I am sure the shot will get better as I know what works and what doesnt.

Darren,

These are very nice. If you are not already familiar with Helicon Focus (stacking for extended depth of field), you should take a look at it. http://www.heliconfocus.com

If budget is a problem, look at the freeware CombineZ5.

Hi there,

what does the sofware do exactly, is it like an overlay of several images with gradual focus changes?

thanks for looking
