- Want another way to improve your photos. Why not try Image Stacking with Affinity Photo. In this video we demonstrate four applications of stacking that can be done with Affinity Photo. We cover noise reduction, exposure merging, long exposure simulation, and focus stacking.

I have had difficulty with all four ways of stacking until now thank you.
Glad to help
Great video! Clean and to the point. Easy to follow.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome, looks easy to do, I have to try these techniques
Yes really simple. Go for it!
Thanks for going through this - I am new to Affinity and got a lot out of your clip. The noise reduction was outstanding and I guess for smaller sensors (which can struggle in low light scenes) is a great facility to have. (Apart from my OM-1, I also have an RX10IV.)
Yes I also use RX100vi those small sensors need all the help it can get. You can also try some AI noise reduction tools which is getting better and better.
@@takebetterphotos8132 you are absolutely right, re the "AI" noise reduction. I also have ON1 and some of the things it does are sensational!
Thank you for the wonderful video Sir! 🙂
Glad you liked it!
Excellent, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for that, now to try it out!
Have fun!
Great video! Nice and simple to follow. Liked and subd 👍
Awesome, thank you!
Thank you for this good info..🙏👍♥️
Always welcome😊
Great video. Will the stacks support raw and tiff files? Thanks
It should support. But it does take some time on larger files.
Dear Sir,
Thank You.
Most welcome
Thank you for the great videos. Is it possible to focus-stack an image then stacking the same photo again to do exposure blending, or noise reduction?
Hi Jeff, I have never heard of both focus stacking and exposure blending. I don't think that will work as you would need to both change focus and change exposures. Much to complicated! I also don't think the software supports such. Noise reduction might be possible by default since focus stacking merges multiple images and that by itself should reduce noise.
@jeffyablone6673 Hi Jeff, I think it will work. I am pretty sure I have done it already. But it is a kind of tedious process and you need perfectly static objects and well fixated camera. First you shoot a series of all focal planes which is a little overexposed. Then another series which is correcty exposed and has all focal planes. And then a series which is a little underexposed. In Affinity you first merge the overexposed pictures as a focal stack, then as a new (!) merge process the normal exposed pics and last the underexposed pics. This way you get three separate files which are sharp from first to last focal plane but are differently exposed. Then take the three results and merge them as a dynamic range stack as shown in the video. Voilá!
@takebetterphotos8132 Don't you think this will work?
Ah, I forgot. The same will work for noise reduction. But this time you need to shoot the suggested number of 10 to 20 pics in the first focal plane as one series, then another series in the next focal plane, and so forth until you have all focal planes covered. In Affinity stack separately the first series, then the second, etc. As results you now have a noise reduced picture of each focal plane. Finally stack these together as a focal stack. And ready! (... after probably hours of work🙂)
Hi there just saw your very helpful response! Still getting used to TH-cam studio comment section. Yes as you say it is possible but very tedious unless you have automated focus stacking. That should have been my answer! Anyway thanks for your input! 🙂
Is it better in V2? In your previous comparison Lightroom won hands down. Can you pls update to the laest versions? Thank you.
Hi Mike which Affinity Feature are you referring to that Lightroom won hands down?
For noise u use Denoise AI or Photo AI for focus stacking use Photoshop and Lightroom for HDR
Yes agree very good software. Will have a video on denoise AI soon. Haven't used photoshop in a while.
DxO PhotoLab 6 ELITE Edition
wait for black friday and see the damage . up upgrade
up upgrade you have to have at list lab 4, cost $99 for the upgrade
the job it dos is farnomanole
Yes trialing photolab 6 now. Want to see whether there is discernable improvement to deepprime
