I've been playing around with false colour renditions for composites using both Visible and Infrared. This is to simulate the Kodak Aero Ektachrome IR film of the post WWII era. But I've not tried it successfully accompanied with focus stacking until now. In brief, a set of focus stacked images was ...

Re: A seasonal stack.

Thank you.

I used an f/1.2 lens fully open to achieve the bokeh and selective focus bracketing of the camera.

Re: Problem with Update installation for 8.1.0

But even when I klicked "Help - check for updates", I learned only that there are "no updates found". This is intentional, as we only enable automatic updates to a new version of Helicon Focus when we're certain it's absolutely stable and problem-free. This is why not every new ...

Re: Problem with Update installation for 8.1.0

8.1.0 ? I use Helicon Focus 7.7.4 Pro and I was already wondering why no updates were announced for so long. But even when I klicked "Help - check for updates", I learned only that there are "no updates found". Now,looking into the forum, I see that version 8.1.0 is discussed. I...

the installation proceeds to the point where sample images JPGs are installed and then the PNG files.

You can hand delete the files
Best work around is to uninstall and then re-install
