Focus Stacking Workshop


Note the "Location" below which indicates if a particular class meets online or in person. Price differences may apply. Confirmation emails will contain specific logistics.

Focus stacking photography allows you to create images of extraordinary depth, sharpness, and detail. In this hands-on workshop using your own digital camera (manual focus required), you'll take a series of photos of the same subject, focusing each shot on a different area. You will then combine these photos using a special software to produce one final breathtaking image. You will walk away from this class with all the techniques, equipment, and software tips you need to continue refining this process at home.

Required Materials and Equipment:
-A digital camera with lenses that have MANUAL FOCUS capability. DSLR's or mirrorless with interchangeable lenses are preferred but advanced compact digital cameras with zoom lenses are acceptable.

-Any mid-range lens that you are comfortable with (28-150mm) and that will allow for a close range focus of 2 feet or less. Lenses can be prime, zoom, macro whatever you wish to experiment with.

- A tripod with a ball head, a remote camera shutter release (corded or wireless), and a laptop (no tablets).

-Some potted plants will be provided for you to photograph, but feel free to bring any flowers or other items from home you wish to photograph.

Required Software:
The instructor will use both Helicon Focus and ZereneStacker. Please be sure have both free trails downloaded prior to the start of class.
