Nikon 105 only focusses one direction

My Nikon 105 Macro lens suddenly will only change focus from Remote in one direction. No settings have been changed since yesterday, when it worked fine. I don't know if this is a problem with the lens, or Remote.

But I keep getting this error message, which leads to the installation of the FTDI driver.

Re: Stacks by focus adjustment OK?

The general consensus seems to be that, for extremely close or highly magnified subjects, the rail provides the potential for smaller steps and therfore less chance of having a portion skipped.

However, it does recognize the D500.

Nikon D7100 no longer recognized

Suddenly Remote no longer recognizes my D7100. It shows up when I 'Select a camera' but when I click OK, it has not been activated.

FTDI driver

As I understand it the FTDI driver is required for Remote to operate. Unfortunately Stackshot 3X will not function if the driver is present. Is there any conversation between the two developers about finding a resolution since it means I cannot have both working at the same time?

Thanks. I had explicitly told him how it should be set, but I am not sure if he really complied.

Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L

Last week I was visiting my son and tried using his camera with the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L. The results were strange. Any attempt to use the focus arrows lead to complete loss of focus, so stacking was was not possible. I don't use Canon, so I wondered if there was something I was doing wrong?

Great. Thanks for the encouraging news. The combination of Helicon and Stackshot has been a real game changer for me.

Re: Stackshot 3X

A manual process doesn't work for me. Some of my shoots last several hours, so I don't want to sit there waiting to create a new stack every ten minutes, I would like to be able to press Start on Stackshot and go away to work on something else.

Re: Stackshot 3X

While I can set the folder with Remote, once control is handed over to Stackshot 3X it places all the files into that folder, with no break since Stackshot has no options for storage and Remote is now playing no role.
