If anyone who is having problems when trying to load a second stack to replace an earlier one without closing the program could test this CombineZP.exe file I...
Hi Alan, I tried to install the exe, but cames this: This application has failed to start because fftw3.dll was not found. Re-installing the applicatin may fix...
Tiago, in CZP I have split the old CZM 'Do Stack' into two parts, 'Align and Balance Used Frames' and 'Do Stack'. You will probably need to run 'Align and...
CreateCompatibleBitmap failed I'm getting this at least twice every stack I try. I'm using the last posted version of CombineZ-m on Windows Me (last version). ...
I do not think this will affect the end result of stacking. This is more of a warning message that some display features might not work properly because your...
... Good. Here are some better images and the output: <a href="http://web.ncf.ca/bf250/czm.html">http://web.ncf.ca/bf250/czm.html</a> Is this the best I can...
Hi John, I had a go with your images in CZP with a macro of my own, looks quite good to me. Here is the output, so you can make a macro yourself: ***...
Wow - looks far better. A lot to learn... To start, have I converted your output to a filter correctly? Select All Normal Filter Output Balance Colour and...
Hi John, I don't know if it works in all cases, but I tweaked the settings myself. I made a macro set for myself and made a copy of some parts of the other...
Here's a new try using eelko's filter constants http://web.ncf.ca/bf250/czm.html They work much better than the default, the detailed center of the flower is...
Hi John, Looks like you got some artefacts on the edges. Try to play around with the Remove lslands(xx) and try different figures there. 8, 12, 16 or even 20...
I ran the same the image stack in CombineZM with the Do Stack macro and with the Do Stack macro with the new CXombineZP. The results were drastically...
Hi, I had the same problem, In ZP the "do stack" was divided in two parts, first go in "align and balance used frames" and after in "so stack"... The result...
Many thanks for your offer of help, eelko. The first image was to see what limits there were to CZ-m on my old system (Windows Me, 500MHz 200MB RAM) - I handed...
I've just installed CZP and attempts to load a 2Mb image (jpg) results in a memory error. After different tries, and closing all other applications, a reduced...
Many thanks again, Eelko. It seems to me that keeping the islands parameter low rather than high results in better detail where it counts. Am I right...
Am I right that the parameters of the filter are scaled to 1000, that is that a width of 100 applied to an evenly spaced 10 frame set is a width equal to the...
I may release a cut down version of CZP when the frequency of updates slows, i.e. when I have ironed out most of the wrinkles, and added any new features I can...
Hello, you have an interesting email address, I had a little chuckle when I saw it. It sounds as thoughyou are on the memory limit border line. You can ...
Hello Folks, I have been keeping quiet lately, had other things to do, so sorry about not joining the discussion earlier. Yes this is correct CZP has had the...
Perhaps you macro shooters could answer this question. I have often been asked if it is better to adjust the camera position or alter the focus on the camera...
... A second try at answering - this is the third time Yahoo has thrown away my post with an error message and I've forgotten to make a copy of it before...
HI Alan, I want to commend you on your great work. Would it make sense to assign version numbers to your releases so we would know if we have the last version?...
In an ideal worlod you are probably correct Nathan, but the way I have developed CZ is not the usual version every few months or so, I prefer to release a...
... Does the alignment change factors internal to CZM? Or, does it actually interpolate pixles in the frame to create the move? The latter of course reduces...
Please do whatever works and is best for you. If the CZ* and the release date reflect the version is the date somewhere available so users would know what is...
The actual alignment only works at the pixel level, but resizing interpolates. Hopefully the first pass will do most of the resizing necessary and the second...
Yes Nathan, look at the About Box available from the Help menu the date will be in there. Alan ... From: Nathan Gutman To: combinez@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
Only just caught up with this thread but another factor may be the focal length. In addition to stacking images I also do qtvr type stitched 360 views,...
