Title: Anyone Use Merging Software for Product Shots ?
Post by: juiceboy99 on March 23, 2009, 01:04:42 pm
Does anyone out there use Merging Software for Product Shots ?

To get the entire product in focus,  Is there software that
can merge different shots together to make everything in focus ?


thanks !

Yes you can do it in Cs4 but Helicon is the best at present.
It is important that any software you do get allows you to work on the different layers because not all merges are perfect and this way you can
tweak your results.
