Request a new feature, or support for a camera/lens that you would like to use in Capture One.
Hello, I'm a professional photographer and I work a lot with focus stacking forjewelry. I shoot with a Phase One IQ4 150mp. What I'm suggesting here is not a problem with the capture one but is a missing tool for using with the PhaseOne XF body.
What problem do you see this solving?
I will describe myworkflow, I set my XF camera for focusstacking, open live view on capture one, focus in the near point, go to the camera andclick the first botton,back to the capture one and focus the far focus point, go to the camera againand click the secondBotton and then I can take the shot. When you have the camera high on afoba stand go and back isveryannoying, especially when you takehundreds of photoslike that per week. I imagine a dedicated tool on capture one where I can focus andchoose the near and far focus point and take the shot without the need to touch the camera.
Best regards,

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?
I never found that functionality on capture one.
Current workaround
Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One? I need to do it manually, but since this is the native software of a 50Kcamera I think this tool is very needed. |
Hello,
I’ve developed an app that automatically captures the images needed for focus stacking, designed to work like a plugin for Capture One (C1).
It can be launched from the script menu within C1, and is compatible with the Pro version only.
The app is limited to devices that support autofocus control through C1, but users can freely configure settings such as the number of shots and the interval between them (wait time).
I developed it using the XF system, so it works smoothly in that environment.
That said, compared to controlling focus entirely from the camera body, stability and precision may be slightly lower.
The app is available on Gumroad, so if you're interested, feel free to give it a try.
There’s also a free demo version, so you can test it out to see if it fits your shooting style and needs!

Hello Phase one,
Could you come back to César Oliveira, I'm really interested in the same feature. I used to face the same issues when processing focus stacking.
Thanks for your comment César.
Best.
