Focus Stacking /Merging

[Peter47628]

Hello,

I'm using AP 1.6 since 11/12/2018, and was satified with it till now. You know, Im a focus-stacker, macro, and now micro too. When doing macro-stacks with my lumix fz1000, I could load up till 950 raw's. and AP did its work without a problem.

For my microscope now I bought an ocular-cam, 21MP from china, model hayear HY-1138. At moment can pics only be saved as jpg,  My first bigger stack with it, a dried sheet of a multi-colored rose, consists of 598 jpg's. But herewith AP hung up within arrange them in a line, after 3/4 was done. I got no remark of a mistake, waited 4 hours, but nothing happened. For getting the result I attached, I had to split the 598 jpg's into 24 parts, stacking them and the 24 results again.

I wonder about the reason, cause raw's are much bigger than jpg's - and with raws, even more than 598, no problems occured till now.

That's the result when I stacked twice. It'S ok, but too much work and time.

Hi @Peter47628,

Sorry for the delayed reply. 

Unfortunately, there's no easy way to test it apart from actually grabbing the samples from you to check if we can replicate it. Can you please attach the 600 odd jpegs on our dropbox so we can have a look? https://www.dropbox.com/request/VJHGOs57B4k3YX4ue32i

Thanks,

Gabe.
