mr2mk1g 10 #2 November 22, 2005 Click: http://graphics.stanford.edu/papers/lfcamera/ Very. That combined with a lot of megapixels would mean you'd be able to focus in on any individual in a formation you wished for example. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faber 0 #3 November 22, 2005 setting your cam at M you can deside both debth sharpness and shutter speed(you´ll need to play whith it),as you have plenty of light up there i would say you should be abel to take pics in focus all over the image up there.. aslong you set the focus on the cam correctly ofcourse Stay safe Stefan Faber Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mccordia 74 #4 November 23, 2005 You can shoot your entire image in focus and then create a black and white depth map (manualy) in photoshop, and use that to determine your focus...but 'real' photography wil always look better JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Praetorian 1 #5 November 23, 2005 while I am a photography snob (still do my own darkroom work whenever I can, color and black and white) I disagree that "real photography will always look better" This same technology is called De-convolution, it allows you to shift depth of focus in cells during microscope work, and is used in satalites (spy sats) to get multiple "perfect" images from a single shot super high end digital sensors are now capable of recording more data per surface area then the best films. very shortly (next 10 years) the price will drop, the size of supporting equptment needed will drop... and film will be used to make day to day images about as often as school pictures are captured by a painter. Good Judgment comes from experience...a lot of experience comes from bad judgment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mccordia 74 #8 November 24, 2005 Quote Got clicky? Some explanation/examples here http://www.richardrosenman.com/dofpro_batchsamples.htm This is from a plug-in/piece of software, but in photoshop, duplicate your layer, then draw a greyscale depthmap, and use that as an alpha channel for that layer . then blur that layer slighly (gaussian blur works okay, but 'lens blur' wil look more realistic) and you'll have a nice fake DOF-blurJC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?
