brass button pixel shift - a photo on Flickriver

            An experiment with pixel shifting and focus stacking. The question to address was whether or not pixel shifting was a substitute method for focus stacking. It is not as it has no effect on focal plane or depth of field. Rather, it is a method of increasing the resolution of an image by making minute shifts of the sensor in the focal plane. This increases the image size of the composite created in camera and reduces sensor noise. Pixel shifting can, however, be combined with focus stacking to produce a very high resolution macro, allowing for a much larger print. The effects are much more subtle when viewed on a screen.

Focus stack (20 images)  with pixel shift (8 half pixel shifts/focal point). Shot with single continuous light source (Rotolight Neo 1 with diffuser filter), 100% power 5700 K, mounted on overhead boom directly over subject. Image size (raw) 16736 x 11163, print size 69 x  46 inches
