In previous videos I have talked about using focus stacking in your landscape photography. Well, the Nikon Z series cameras have a way to automate this using their Focus Shift feature.
In this video I talk about how to configure Focus Shift shooting on your Nikon Z series camera for landscape photography and how to blend the images in Photoshop. These settings apply to the Nikon Z6, Z6ii, Z7, and Z7ii.

As a macro shooter, Nikon should have made focus stacking a "mode" so you can just use the shutter button to start your sequence. Try shooting a moving bug while navigating that menu. Olympus got it right.
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography 5 месяцев назад
100% agree. Why they don’t let you tie that to your shutter button but make you dive into the menu system… Not a great design from that standpoint. Mainly an annoyance for landscape photographers, but practically deal breaking for macro.

I've used the focus shift for macro but not for landscape. One of the 3 things that effects depth of field is the distance to where the focal point is from the camera. That depth of field changes the further away the focus point is moved. As far as I know Nikon cameras shift the focus on an even amount throughout the shift phase instead of increasing the depth of field as it focuses farther away. If you're shooting macro that depth of field isn't going to change that much but if you're focusing on a rock or log at the minimum focus distance and then moving it through the scene, you may only have inches of depth of field at the start. But by the time you're halfway through the scene the depth of field may be several years deep until you reach infinity. I think what I need to do is try focusing manually where I think I need to focus and then try focus shifting. Then compare both photos. I don't want to take more photos than I have to because things might move on me. And sometimes I bracket my shots. I think Nikon needs to have one mode for landscape and one for macro. The one for landscape should adjust the depth of field accordingly depending on the focal length and aperture settings instead of shifting the focal point the same amount for every shot. I hope I'm making sense. I used to have a Tamron 24-70mm that had some focus breathing. I traded it in on the Nikon lens. So far I don't see much focus breathing but I haven't done much focus stacking with it.
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography Месяц назад
Nikon could make what the interval really means more clear. And it probably would make sense to potentially have one focus shift mode for each of those situations.

Hello from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Really liked this video. I have just ordered a Z series camera and although focus shift is available on my current camera I wanted to see what it was like in a Z. Your explanation and walk through is really good. Not too fast; very clear; very well explained. Subbed straight away. Twice! As I was in my personal account initially and now in my public face account 😊. Your final crop really made the image. Liked that a lot. I am off now to watch 5 tips for autumn photography. I have missed peak colour due to illness but there are still some leaves up. Bye for now. Alastair

Nice explanation! The problem that I run into with focus stacking with my Nikons is when there are moving objects due to a breeze, like tree limbs, leaves, plants and gases. PS does not seem to be able to get those alignments right and they often look funky. It seems that this process works best when every items in the scene is perfectly stationary.
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography 2 года назад
Thanks for watching Mark! A breeze can definitely make things more difficult. The scene in this video was pretty still, with barely any breeze. Which helped a lot for the situation where I wanted sharp focus from front to back and a slightly longer exposure to help blur the moving water. If it had been windy it would have been much harder to get the water the way I wanted it to look and keep the leaves in focus. If I was focus stacking a scene with no moving water and it was windy, I probably would have adjusted my ISO up so I can could have a shutter speed that would freeze the motion of tree limbs and grasses from the wind and go with those settings.

Thank you for the explanation it was very helpful. I would like to know how do you handle in Photoshop objects in the background that are moving such as leaves.
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography Год назад
Thank you - glad it was helpful! First, you do still need to watch the shutter speed and make sure it is fast enough to stop the motion of blurred leaves. Focus stacking needs things to be be in focus for at least one frame. If something needs fixed manually because PS didn't stack it well, then you'd use the layer masks in Photoshop and paint in black to conceal the out of focus areas, and then white to reveal the in-focus areas. Hope that helps!

Hey Jeffrey, thanks for your videos they are like master class to me. Question I have plan to buy the Laowa 15mm f/2 Zero-D but it does not have any comunication with the camera (z5) do you think the focus shift shooting works as well. Thanks in advance
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography Год назад
Thank you - I am glad the videos have been helpful! I only have first-hand experience with Nikon lenses, but my understanding is that Focus Shift shooting will only work if the lens can autofocus on the camera body. If the lens is completely manual, then focus shift shooting would not work. But I've only worked with Nikon lenses (or 3rd party lenses, that fully communicate with the camera). Hope that helps!
@hendrickziegler8487
@hendrickziegler8487 Год назад
In case any Nikon dev engineer takes a look on this video: Maybe try to copy Panasonics system just a bit :) There you just activate focus stacking and start the process like a normal photo with the shutter button. This means that you can also use it without a tripod (unlike Nikon). Also, it starts from the desired main subject and then focuses in front and behind the subject. This helps with ensuring that whatever subject caught the eye in the first place is dead sharp in any case. Taking 20 shots with a Z7 is nice and achieves the same result in the end - but at that moment you will have filled your memory card with 2GB of images for just one photo. And it requires way more processing power to combine 20 shots.

I need to take a closer look at the focus stacking features of the GX85 (I have one of those for sort of a travel camera). I know in general it seems M43 systems have a lot of pretty cool features that often seem lacking on some of the full frame folks. Thanks for the watching and the comment!

@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography 2 года назад
Hello Alan! Do you have the self-timer on? If so - that will gray out the Start option in the Focus Shift menu. When I focus shift, I use manual mode and if I want to reduce any chance of camera shake, I will enable exposure delay, which does let you have the Start option available in Focus Shift, whereas self-timer does not. Let me know if that works for you!

Hi ! Nice video , question, which Z camera support focus stacking / shifting and are there ones who also auto stack them for you or not?
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography 20 дней назад
I believe the Z5, Z6, Z6II, Z6III, Z7, Z7II, Z8, and Z9 support focus shift shooting (oh, and the Zfc as well?). The Z50 is the one that I am aware of that lacks it (unless it was added in a firmware update). As for compositing the images together in camera, I am not aware of Nikon having that option. They tend to automate the capture of the images with different focus points, but then rely on blending them together in post-processing software. Hope that helps!

Great video Sir. I have Z6 but why do I have to start the focus shifting from the menu but not from the shutter button ? because that means I have to lose the viewfinder or lose the composition if not using tripod. I can not find any shortcut to assign it to any custom fn button.
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography 7 месяцев назад
Thank you! I don’t think Nikon has allowed the option to shortcut assign it unfortunately. I believe it is only accessible through the menu (I do add it to ‘My Menu’ to help make accessing it a little easier, but of course, that still requires going into the menu to start the focus stack, so not helpful for handheld.

Hi Alan! I just checked on my z6ii and I was able to use aperture priority or shutter priority and start a focus shift sequence (though I usually use manual mode for Focus Shifting) as well. So - even in manual mode though, Start is not grayed out, but if you choose it - it gives you the error with shooting mode? Other common things that can cause it not to work would apply ( lens has to be in auto focus mode, bracketing has to be off, no self-timer, no HDR, there has to be a memory card in the camera, and the date and time need set. Do any of those apply to when you are trying it?

@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography 4 месяца назад
I'm not sure if they will or not. Based on past firmware releases, they've been slow to add/bring actual features to camera in my opinion. With that said, they recently were rumored to have said they were going to get more responsive with firmware updates and relay more customer feedback to their firmware development teams. We'll see if they actually do that. I've said in other videos that I think camera companies should do more for their existing users through firmware updates to help build more loyal customers over the long term. Hoping Nikon follows through on that rumor.

I just set it to 20, because that sets the maximum number of photos. I used to set it to 10, but on some more complex scenes (usually woodland scenes), it would want to take 11 or 12 shots. It generally doesn’t take that many - for more open scenes, it seems like 4 or 5 is what it likes to take. Totally agree about the files adding up over time! Hope that helps!

By stacking so many images for landscape you will cause many photos to look quite flat. 2 or 3 max upto a few hundred only gor very fine macro.
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography
@JeffreyTadlockPhotography 2 месяца назад
I haven't really seen a scene go flat from focus stacking, can you describe what you mean more by that? The number of images for a stack can vary - often 2 or 3 is the right amount, sometimes 4. But if there is a strong, detailed foreground element close to the lens of the camera, more shots can be needed for a good blend. I often find complex woodland scenes when there is something prominent in the foreground are a situation where 3 or 4 shots won't work. But agreed - very fine macro is where the number of shots gets really high.

There are a few other settings on the camera that can cause it to be greyed out, here's a list of some common ones: "Focus shift cannot be combined with some camera features, including movie recording, time-lapse movies, bracketing, the self-timer, long time-exposures (bulb or time photography), HDR (high dynamic range), multiple exposure, and interval timer photography." Also - make sure there is a memory card in the camera. If there isn't a memory card, I believe it is greyed out as well. Hope that helps!
