Four images created using my Z6 with the Sigma 105mm f2.8 macro lens via the FTZ. The point about these four images is that they were created using "tethered capture" in Capture One Pro 21. I used C1P to completely control the Z6 remotely and take 15 shots per composition where the point of focus was changed remotely between each shot having already selected the aperture, shutter speed, and other relevant settings through Capture One and never once having to touch the camera. The NEF (RAW) files were then processed in C1P before using the Helicon Focus plug-in to use HF for the stacking process. I ran two different stacking methods in HF (B&C) before passing the stacked images back to C1P as TIF files which were then given a final "polish" before being output to jpeg. This is the first time I had tried this whole process from start to finish without touching the camera and only leaving the computer in order to reposition the subject. I have now transitioned from Adobe Lightroom to Capture One Pro. I was, and still am, a fan of the Adobe products, but Capture One has really impressed me and wasn't difficult to transition to.
