Helicon software9/2/2023 ![]() ![]() I got frustrated with poor results from a gemmy weloganite micro, taken in 50 images, so I tried re-stacking this into 5 sets of 10 each, then combining the 5 resulting images (all tiffs to avoid jpeg "round-off" error). It's especially acute for deep images with many pictures in the stack. Recent Images in DiscussionsĢ8th Mar 2008 21:25 UTC Tony Peterson Expert This isn't exactly about CombineZ vs Helicon but is appropriate to the thread.in addition to the halo problem - which can't be avoided when a close object sits in front of a distant background - I sometimes have a problem with CombineZM not producing a well-focussed image of the terminations of objects that project outward, particularly if they are low-contrast.

When working with Helicon FB Tube you set the step size from the Configuration utility, then focus on the initial shooting point and control the number of required shots by holding down and releasing the shutter button.╳Discussions □ Home □ Search □ Latest Groups EducationOpen discussion area. With Helicon Remote the initial and the end shooting points are set from the app. Each of these ways of performing focus bracketing can be good for certain shooting conditions, depending on your workflow. In this case Helicon FB Tube can be a good solution – it needs no additional power supply, no additional connection to external devices during shooting. But if you want also to shoot in the field, to shoot hand-held and/or shoot moving objects, you would probably prefer shooting in burst mode and having no additional devices involved. It’s fine if you don’t need high shooting speeds, if you have time and space to set it all up. With Helicon Remote you need to tether your camera and you can trigger shooting remotely. They both enable automated focus bracketing, each of these solutions having it’s specifics and advantages. Helicon Remote and Helicon FB Tube are not intended to be used together. Win, Mac OS, Android or iOS device with 3.5mm audio outputīefore starting working with Helicon FB tube, camera and lens settings need to be adjusted and Helicon FB Tube needs to b e configured.♼anon DSLR with EF-mount / Nikon DSLR with F-mount.Two types of Helicon FB Tube are available: for Canon DSLRs and for Nikon DSLRs. ♾xtension cable – can be connected between smartphone and IR Transmitter.IR Transmitter – connects to 3.5 mm audio port of a smartphone and sends commands to IR Receiver on the tube.Protective Caps – protect the tube from dust. ![]() LED Indicator – Red/Green light to show status of the tube.IR Receiver – IR port to get configuration information.Helicon FB Tube Set contains Helicon FB Tube, transmitter and extension cable. Helicon FB Tube settings are configured through an additional application for Win, Mac OS, Android or iOS devices. Helicon FB Tube has no optics and does not affect image quality. Helicon FB Tube needs no additional hardware apart from conventional cameras and lenses. Mounted on the camera in the same way as a usual macro extension tube, Helicon FB Tube automatically shifts the focus by one step with each shot thus producing a stack of images of unlimited length that can be rendered into a fully-focused image. Helicon FB Tube is an extension tube with integrated electronic microcontroller designed to enable automated focus bracketing in single or continuous shooting modes. ![]()
