Z8_50_f1_2_f5_PSFS _FINAL_IP
I have been chomping at the bit to be able to talk about one of the new features in the Z8 3.0 firmware update. Specifically the ability to do a pixel shift / focus shift series of captures. Wow…… the color fidelity, and incredible detail is mind boggling but having your cake and eat it too with being able to mix wide ope with critical aperture for the sharpest and creamiest Bokeh again Wow…..
Pixel Shift is an option where the camera moves the sensor during a series of captures. This series is then merged in the Nikon NX Studio software. In this case, the pixel shift option was set to the maximum capture option of 32 images. The camera exposed an image then moved the sensor… about half the width of a single pixel… and exposed the next one. For 32 images. Those 32 NEF (RAW) files were merged into one massive NEFX raw file that now has a resolution of about 180,000,000 pixels.
Focus Shift Shooting is an option where the camera makes an exposure then shifts focus to a different plane and makes another exposure. The cool part is that the camera is automatically setting the shift movement so that a series of images can be stacked on post in such a way to increase the depth of the PLANE of focus. This results in a subject the can have a nearly unlimited amount of the subject focus. Not just more depth of field, but depth of actual in focus.
The Z8 FW 3.0 is the first time anyone has offered both at the same time on a full frame professional camera.
