Helicon focus voegde aan zijn gamma een tussenring toe die werkt met geprogrammeerde software. Door deze ring te programmeren neemt de tussenring autonoom een reeks stacking foto's die dan verder in een software programma resulteert in een foto met uitgesproken dieptewerking. De tussenring werkt enkel met bepaalde types van camera 's (Canon en Nikon) én met zeer specifieke lenzen. De ring kwam reeds toe doch ik moet nog de aangepaste lens kopen. De resultaten hoop ik binnenkort te kunnen bespreken.

Helicon FB Tube is an extension tube with integrated electronic microcontroller designed to enable automated focus bracketing in single or continuous shooting modes. Mounted on the camera in the same way as a usual macro extension tube, Helicon FB Tube automatically shifts the focus by one step with each shot thus producing a stack of images of unlimited length that can be rendered into a fully-focused image.
Helicon FB Tube needs no additional hardware apart from conventional cameras and lenses. Its functionality allows to completely replace macro rails normally used for focus bracketing. Helicon FB Tube has no optics and does not affect image quality.
Helicon FB Tube settings are configured through an additional application for Android or iOS.
Helicon FB Tube Set contains Helicon FB Tube, transmitter and extension cable.
