Thanks very much to CHG CANON & to PixelStan for the Help. You both mentioned the top needed to be cropped. Your right. I didn't notice the specs. I need to learn to inspect my work more closely.

Try a single AF point set directly on the nearest eye and compare those results.


I'll give it a try. Thanks very much for your advice!

The pose and exposure are very nice. You could clean up the background a bit as noted above. Great eye contact with the camera.

But, what concerns me is the image is not in sharp focus, not her eye nor anywhere that I could find. Your camera and this lens are much more capable. Look at your original file in DPP and confirm where you focused and your focus mode.


Here is a cropped Photo. The focus was square on the face in auto mode. Please suggest anything else you can think of regarding focus. More comments are welcome.

Has anyone used 'Helicon Focus' for focus stacking? Please tell me your experience or other such software you have used. My main purpose is for model railroad photos; Thank you, Dave


Yes I use it frequently. For me, it's an excellent program, easy to use, does a great job.

I shot this several years ago in Ixtapa, Mexico. Please critique and BE TOUGH. I'm trying to learn both photography and PP Photoshop. Thanks in advance for your help. Bob

As you move the focus ring or slide position do you flip the shutter. How do you stack the images, in software on computer. Or does your camera ‘stack’ internally.


Hi John, If you're referring to my post about the Canon EOS RP, You set the focus bracketing in the menu. After it takes the shots you download into computer and use focus stacking software. LR, PS, I use Helicon Focus.

I've tried 2 methods of focusing for macro focus stacking. The first is to keep the camera in a fixed position and turn the focus ring to focus at different depths by eye. The second is to use a rail on the tripod that allows the camera to be moved closer or farther from the subject without moving the focus ring. This method allows movement in measurable increments (matched to depth of field), but also changes the perspective slightly since camera-to-subject distance is changing. I would be interested in additional pros, cons, and preferences. Thanks.

The new Canon EOS RP mirrorless does this automatically. They call it focus bracketing. It's great.
