Transferring the photos to the MacBook, checking them and processing in Zerene Stacker probably takes up to 30 mins. Possibly up to an hour total for the whole process from choosing the subject to finished stacked photo.Midmarsh Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10980417659811194899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-42147840166885839082014-02-24T01:23:18.247+00:002014-02-24T01:23:18.247+00:00The lighting made a huge difference!

Once you know how to set up the lighting, camera, etc, how long does it take to set it up, take the shots, and create the multifocused final image?Wilmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14717012784233946753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-41392984869984363532014-02-23T19:53:55.792+00:002014-02-23T19:53:55.792+00:00TWG: Ah, rosehips - lovely syrup and even better w...TWG: Ah, rosehips - lovely syrup and even better wine.Midmarsh Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10980417659811194899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-48887439944695632732014-02-23T19:53:00.624+00:002014-02-23T19:53:00.624+00:00Thanks Adrian, still a lot to learn on lighting an...Thanks Adrian, still a lot to learn on lighting and exposure.Midmarsh Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10980417659811194899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-77124781194770058052014-02-23T13:46:07.426+00:002014-02-23T13:46:07.426+00:00i like the rose hip and the wire shot best!i like the rose hip and the wire shot best!TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641962051044162710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-78079595665682017562014-02-23T09:07:36.313+00:002014-02-23T09:07:36.313+00:00Good job John.
