Thank you for confirming it works! Just to clarify, do you have OpenCL acceleration enabled (in the Helicon Focus preferences - Performance)? As for the issue you've described, please send an error report (menu - Help - Contact support) after saving the result, just before you quit Helicon Focus. Ar...

We're investigating the problem. In the meantime, please use an older version of the 3D Viewer that works. Download this, and only replace replace the 3D Viewer:

Thank you very much for spotting the problem and letting us know, we're looking into it.

That is pretty much how it works, yes. We were waiting for Mac Mini with M3 because we really don't want/need a laptop, but there is still not even a release date for it, so yes, we are getting a Macbook.

It likely does work because we see that people have been able to activate it and submit their benchmark results. If you already have the M2 Ultra system then the best answer would be to download Helicon Focus and see for yourself, but yes, it does seem to be working.

It may very well be that these bits are not present in the source images due to focus breathing, which is why the first step in such a case is to use the retouching tool to see whether you can manually paint in the missing detail. You may well discover that it's not possible. And if it is possible, ...

The radius and smoothing parameters may affect the image, but you said you tried different combinations. So we're thinking that maybe Photoshop develops raw files better than the DNG converter. The default radius and smoothing should be pretty good (you can reset to default by right-clicking the sli...

Hi Manfred,

Please send a bug report (menu - Help - Contact support) after the error occurs. I have no idea what it could be, though. The symptoms are typical for a RAM shortage, but I don't imagine you're running out of 64 GB. Either way, a support request will help.

Hello, Helicon Focus should not alter the exposure of your images, most likely it's the Adobe DNG converter doing that. You can verify by opening the Adobe DNG converter manually, converting your raw file and inspecting the resulting DNG file in different programs. We haven't heard about simply chan...

There is currently no way to do it in batch mode, but you can with command line mode

Hello Michael,

Sorry about that. We don't understand why that happened, so we disabled this feature completely.
