Once the trial period is over the program will add promotional text to the resulting image and will limit its resolution to 4 Mpixels unless you register the program. You can evaluate a fully functional version for 30 days. One issue when passing raw files to Helicon is that Helicon does not apply lens corrections.=> IIRC, the generated linear DNG is closer to a raw file than to a TIFF (from post-processing potential: WB, highlight recovery). I did not know that and that is not what we were saying here back when I did it every day for a couple of months 30 months ago. So, editing the demosaiced linear DNG back in LR is the same as editing an actual RAF raw file? Amazing. That's not the way I did it before and was not what we were all talking about back then as best practice, but I will sure do it that way if it is best. So, you do nothing with edits to the stack in C1 before exporting to Helicon but wait until Helicon has done its magic and rendered the stacked DNG and then hit it with edits back in C1. I'll be doing this again soon and if I run into a problem I will PM you if you would not mind. I think you export to Helicon (a LR menu choice on export), but I think it goes to Helicon as a DNG, not a RAF file. I probably said that wrong because I haven't been in Helicon in a couple of years. (shot with a Sony A6000, Mitutoyo 5x Plan APO and Raynox DCR150 at approx 3.7x (I think)) RAW File - stacked DNG (using the RAW files directly) - stacked TIFF (using the RAW files directly:Īs you can see it's as if the DNG really was an original RAW file. I've actually made a comparison (underexposed and overexposed by several stops in CaptureOne): The DNG stacking is based on the AdobeRAW converter anyway and for some reason the results are noticeably sharper and more detailed.Īlso - whatever adjustments you make have no influence over the exported DNG.Īs I said it has the exact same dynamic range as the RAW file (including highlight and shadow recovery, white balance, colour range etc) and I can copy settings from original RAW files (in CaptureOne) and use them for the stacked DNG and they look pretty much identical. I've actually found that I get the best results by simply dragging the original RAW files directly into Helicon. It is possible to demosaic images in such a way that dr is reduced, or write the demosaiced file in such a way that the dr is reduced. That linear demosaiced DNG is sort of like a TIFF file, right?ĭemosaicing does not per se reduce dynamic range. But, you can still edit it play with it in LR at the end of the process in LR. You can also of course do further corrections to that exported from Helicn DNG, but it won't be as much latitude as with the original raw because it has been demosaiced. I think we also said if you want to crop just do it later on the final exported DNG once back in LR. The corrections will be exported and when Helicon finished its work and spits out the huge demosaiced linear DNG, it has those corrections. I think we all agreed (and Helicon said in their forum) that you should go in LR, make any required adjustments and make sure to apply them to the whole stack with a sync command, and then export as DNG. I've stopped stacking TIFF or JPEGs ever since and haven't looked back. Yes, it's a demosaiced linear DNG but as far as I can tell the dynamic range and colour adjustments are exactly the same as with the original RAW file - which is pretty nice. LR has it and uses it.Īlso, remember, as Jim has said many times, when Helicon exports the final result as a DNG it is a demosaiced "DNG" and not like (for example) the "pure" native raw file DNG that is produced by your Leica Q2/3.

I asked Adobe about this later and they said LR always has the latest DNG converter built into it and you don't need to download that app. Back when I was stacking, the word on this forum was that if you exported to Helicon as DNG, you had to make sure to separately download the latest version of the converter from Adobe as a separate app, and LR would revert to it on the export.
