Re: Hairy areas Zerene stacking problem

Hi Paweł,
will I have to work hard at PS
yes, if you want to achieve good results, you will have to work hard :-(

Some workflows:

The crossed hairs can be retouched e.g. by Zerene (using sub-stacks).

TIFF is OK (16 Bit)

Re: Insects, and maybe a discussion about post-processing

Hi Mark, My workflow depends on the camera and the lens. E.g. ETTR doesn't work with M6M2 but it does with 6D. The 6D doesn't noise at all, but the M6M2 does. I de-noise more for the high magnifications than for the small ones. Depending on the output size, I also sharpen more for the web than for t...

Re: World Microscope Day – 13th April

Hello Alan,
Many thanks for the info!
Do you know how to participate in the zoom-meeting or its parts?
Is it just streamed or is it offered as an interactive video conference?
Best,

Re: The new bargain: PL M 100 / 0.90 ∞

Hi Scarodactyl,
I edit all images with the same workflow.
The effects are from Topaz.
I will probably have to reduce some values for the high NA.

Hi Jörgen,
Normally I use flashes, but this time I lit with 2 COB LEDs and 3 LED torches.
As diffusor I used a normal printer paper.

Re: Newbie question - Depth of Field considerations...

Hello Pau, Actually, I just wanted to stress that this is how I proceed. The higher the NA, the smaller the steps. The smaller the steps, the greater the deviation from the step size. The greater the deviation, the greater the number of photos within the DOF. A look at the evaluation of the test of ...
