Focus stacking: second attempt

JetCrocodile

Hi!

I continue my quest with using Sigma 70-300 + reversed 50mm Nikon 1.8.
Of course such setup requires focus stacking. Thnaks to Brian's tutorial I was able to made first steps in conquring Combine TZ software.










Something went wrong with the next image



perhaps I stuck too many images? Any ideas how to fix it?


Finally the leg of the "common fly" (at least I think that it was a common fly perhaps I am wrong) even with a monopod it is not sharp @ 6x



C&C are always welcome!
Regards,

Skippy

I see your having a few problems with the stacking Technique Jet,
but I betcha Brian can help you with this.

I have not used it enough to even attempt to help you sorry.

Good Luck .... Skippy

Hi Jet, i think you may be focusing too far between each frame.
there seems to be a few out of focus bands between the sharp areas.
what apperture are you using?
the fewer frames you stack, use a smaller f no.
i use 4-6 frames at f8 -11, 2-4 frames at f5- 7. as a guide.
keep practising.
