RE: [Digital BW] Re: OT - Focus Stacking & Dual Focus

2011-04-02 by Mike Kirwan

I am going to try it out with my Hasselblad this weekend my V-series lenses are well suited to this; take two shots, scan and use the same approach in Photoshop. Might even give it a try with my 4x5 or larger as depth of field is always a challenge when needing to stop down and having to live with slow shutter speeds and having to take reciprocity failure into account. Saving an f-stop or two could make a big difference
 
If I get time to try this out I will see if I can post my results.
 
Mike

Very interesting article Paul & many thanks for sharing it. It is something I 
never think about in the field..

How did you print medium format negatives using this technique?

Another OT on this technique that I think might be of interest here.

I posted a sample hand held dual focus snapshot at 
http://www.paulroark.com/Dual-Focus-Focus-Stacking.pdf

(The B&W composition was bad, so I left it in color. Sorry for more OT.)
