Helicon Remote: DOF calculator adjustments
Helicon Remote calculates automatically the focus distance between adjacent shots (focus stacking).
But, how to be sure that this value is correct? In this video, we explain how to check it and how to find the right value.
By the way, if you want to buy Helicon Focus and/or Helicon Remote, you can use the links to the right and get a 20% off.
This is the table with the correct correction factor for different lenses/magnifications (using the text file I use in the video). If you want to contribute to this database, please download the text file in A4 size paper or letter size, and email the results for your lens at fotoigual@gmail.com.
Please, submit the following info: calculated correction factor, camera, lens, magnification, f/numbers tested (at least two of them), any comments you have.
| Maker | Lens | magnification | correction factor | f-stops |
