Re: Fun with MF images - Part 3
Three images offered:
The finished image is 42x31 and is comprised of 6 images (2 rows 3 images each row).
The second image is 4 images layered for focus.
Third image is 2 images layered for focus.
I had attempted to stitch the first image using my Dell XPS M1330 (dual core/4GB RAM) but keep hitting the RAM wall. I could do limited stitching even when I had my P30+ back thus I knew it was only a matter of time before upgrading. While I could perform limited stitching there just wasn't anyway to get the computer to do a focal layer thus I was left not knowing if I had gotten what I wanted till I got home.
So being frustrated and not handling it well at all I decided that I needed a newer traveling laptop one that will be able to keep up with the type of images I like to shoot. I ordered a new Dell Precision M6400 2 weeks ago and it arrived here on Friday just in time for my next trip (leaving tomorrow morning). Now I have a big 17" quad core 8GB 2 disk big hawking machine (did I mention it'll go up to 16GB?) that has 2 hard drives. The image is a result of trying out the machine this morning. I'd say I finally have a laptop that is very close to being an equal to my studio computer; and yes I'm happy.
All images shot using a Cambo RS1000, P45+ and 35mm lens - can't forget the Cube!:clap:
