Developer’s Description

Create one completely focused image from partially focused images.

Helicon Focus is a program that creates one completely focused image from several partially focused images by combining the focused areas. The program is designed for macrophotography, microphotography and hyperfocal landscape photography to cope with the shallow depth-of-field problem. Helicon Focus also aligns images as objects often change their size and position from shot to shot. This function is especially important for macrophotography.

Superior ability to render sharp composite images.
Sore LoserNovember 14, 2010
Pros
The software functions at its best when the component images are as close to identical as possible for brightness and the position of the main subject. The 'stacked' image has very high resolution and shows 3D depth with many subjects.
Cons
Differences in exposure of over 1.5 stops, especially highlights limit the ability of the software to 'render' an image. Images taken in sequence from either top to bottom or bottom to top are recognized and preferred, a negative for acquisition.
Summary
This software has been a pleasant surprise given it's modest cost. It not only recognizes area in focus but also gives an HDR appearance on processed images as long as the exposures (+/-) are cluster within a full f-stop of correct exposure. It performs much better if other image factors are adjusted before processing. Although it gives a warning, it will process out of sequence images.
