\"Group<\/a><\/p>\n

More fun with Helicon Focus<\/a>. The picture of Hatsune Miku below the fold was composed from a stack of 76 f\/5.6 slices. The figurine is eight inches tall, including the base.<\/p>\n

I recently discovered that LED light bulbs are available in “daylight” varieties, with a color temperature of 5000 K. I used them in taking these pictures, and I didn’t need to do any color correction. Previously, when I did series of pictures indoors, I had the choice of using flash and waiting increasingly long periods as the flash recycled between shots, or using incandescent lights and fixing the colors in Photoshop.<\/p>\n

\"Hatsune<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Soldiers\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Nyanko-sensei\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A bonus that came with my Girls und Panzer<\/em><\/strong> movie calendar. Nyanko is a yokai in Natsume Yuujin-cho<\/a><\/em><\/strong> who usually takes the form of a fat, gluttonous cat.<\/p>\n

This photo illustrates one of the limits of focus-stacking. Note where the cord emerges from behind the cat. The cord at that point is much further from the camera than the cat. If the camera aperture is wide, when the cord is in focus Nyanko will be blurry, and the blur will obscure the cord near where it emerges from the cat. You can minimize this by stopping down, but sometimes you want a shallow depth-of-field in each slice to blur the background.<\/p>\n
