Accelerated Vision FOCUS #6⁠

Macro photographers love focus stacking, so there is no doubt they will love FOCUS #6 too

FOCUS #6 is an advanced image editing program that is ideal for macro photography. It enables the creation of a sharp image from a series of photos with varying depths of sharpness. This function is particularly useful in situations where the depth of field of the camera is insufficient for displaying the whole object with the requisite sharpness in close-up shots.

Image alignment precision has been improved by up to 300%, providing more precise and sharp results. The speed of the focus fusion calculation and the PSF focus stacking algorithms has been increased significantly, with the latter working twice as quickly in the new version.

Additionally, FOCUS #6 offers 7 new and thus a total of 50 revised presets with AI filters in eight categories. These presets are ideal for post-processing results directly from the program. With the latest version of FOCUS #6, in Expert mode, you get 113 professional filters allowing fine-tuning of your image. This includes eleven new AI effects in the 'AI' effect category, as well as eight new layer blending modes (now totaling 91).

Features:

• NEW: Optimised image alignment with up to 300% more precision
• NEW: Optimisation of PSF focus stacking algorithms and MCE and MSE algorithms
• NEW: Custom category bar for switching editing categories on and off
• 7 new AI-optimized image templates, totaling 50
• Processing RAW image files & real-time color module with 10 layers
• 18 new professional image filters in expert mode, with 113 in total
• Virtual micro-details and grain & sensor error correction

The “Selective drawing” module enables you to customise specific image areas using our intelligent brush function, which automatically finds contours and thus automatically prevents them from being drawn over – a very fast and effective method for you to make selective image adjustments.

The user interface is optimally designed for use in HD and ultra HD (4K) resolution. All the main areas can be moved individually, and all the buttons feature interactive explanations (tooltips). The different areas are clearly and logically structured: you can find the presets on the left, the area for editing the current image in the middle and the “Finalise” and “Expert” areas on the right. You can make extensive changes to your image here with just a few clicks. The interface also has an innovative category bar, which you can use to switch the editing categories on and off with ease.
