If I recall correctly, HeliconSoft (the company that offers all the above) at one time offered a motorized, computer-controlled focusing rail device for use on a tripod. Check the HeliconSoft website for compatibility and/or contact them for recommendations. Which you would need depends upon the camera and lens you're using. Remote is software, while FB Tube is hardware and software. Helicon Remote and Helicon FB Tube essentially do the same thing. This device also requires a lens with autofocus capabilities. It is currently available only in Canon EF mount and Nikon F mount (both DSLR lens mounting systems, which might be possible to adapt to some mirrorless camera systems). The device is controlled by computer, tablet or smart phone. "Helicon FB Tube" is a physical device that's fitted between lens and camera both to allow the lens to focus closer and to provide incremental focus bracketing. This version is in development to be a future version of Helicon Remote. "Helicon Remote Beta" is same as Helicon Remote with a few newer camera models added (including some Sony, Canon and Nikon mirrorless), although in some cases there may be limited functionality.
#HELICON FOCUS TUTORIAL SOFTWARE#
The software resides on a computer or other device, to which the camera will be tethered.
"Helicon Remote" is a software that can be used to control select Canon and Nikon DSLRs and will make the cameras do focus bracketing as described above. Before buying any of the following, check your camera's capabilities in this regard. Some cameras now have built in ability to do focus bracketing, where the camera shifts focus slightly for a series of shots that will be later post-processed with the above software.
"Helicon Focus" is a computer image editing software used to combine a series of images taken at different focus points into a single image with greater depth of field than is possible optically. Looks interesting but does it really work? Has anyone used the Helicon Focus? It is used for automatic focus stacking via a lens attachment combined with their software program.
