Features of Franzis FOCUS

• Professional depth of field for your macros
  Macro enthusiasts swear by focus stacking. See for yourself! With a complete revision of the user interface for 4k Ultra HD and new focus stacking algorithms, FOCUS professional gets everything and even more out of your images!
• Use the focus stacking software for
  • Nature macros
  • Product photography, e.g. for online shops
  • Landscape photography
  • Still life
  • Microscope photography
  • Portrait photography
• What actually is focus stacking?
  • Sure you know this too: if you approach an object very closely with the camera, the depth of field is not large enough to focus the entire object. Anyone who likes to take photos with a scale of 1: 1 or higher will reach the limits of optics faster than they would like. Fade down heavily? It doesn’t work either, because this reduces the sharpness of detail of the entire image and short shutter speeds are also a thing of the past …
  • That is now finally over. The solution is a series of sharpening – a so-called focus stack! Record your macro object with several single images and shift the focus backwards bit by bit. FOCUS projects 5 professional then merges all recordings from 3 to 1500 sharpness levels into a single image with incomparable depth of field. The photographed object is now consistently sharp from front to back and all that without effort and in a few seconds. You don’t need to press any buttons or adjust any controls. You receive sharp macros fully automatically.
• Macros like a pro, very easy!
  As sharp as never before with FOCUS projects 5 professional. Now with new effects, e.g. masking smooth areas, correcting noise and color and perspective and two new preset categories: contrast and spotlight. Professional tools for ambitious macro photographers. The highlight: The completely redesigned user interface guarantees even faster and more intuitive use for both experienced and novice macro enthusiasts.
• Selective drawing and RAW module
  The latest version of FOCUS projects offers you many improved and new software highlights that are precisely tailored to the needs of modern photography.

What are you waiting for?

  Two brand new stacking algorithms are used in FOCUS projects 5 professional: PSF color and PSF luminance / brightness (PSF = point spread function), which were developed explicitly for multiple recordings of the same focus points and thus enable integrated noise reduction through new stacking.
• Significance check of your focus range!
