Superb photo! I like that pixel shift has many more applications than the obvious studio work and landscapes (when conditions are right).

Nice shot Antonio, but I'm a little confused by the pixel shift explanation in this thread. My understanding is that to date Adobe products do not recognise the 4 image pixel shift files, and can only 'see' the first image of a series. Therefore what you are processing is not a pixel shifted image

My understanding is that so far the only way to get the pixel shifted image is either ooc jpeg, or in DCU5 then output the resulting image as a tiff to PS or other application.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks!
Yes, if no wind and the temperature is low the pixel shift is very usable with insects in early morning

It's true?

Thanks for tip...I thought that by opening the RAW file "pixel shift" was seen correctly by Photoshop....tonight i will try with DCU 5 !
But...if i open "normal" RAW e "pixel shift" RAW with Camera RAW, the "pixel shift" RAW is better

Hello,
i found this:
Lightroom CC 2015.1.1 is now available
I think Pixel shift mode is supported

Hi Antonio, it looks like you are correct. Not being a lightroom user (even though I have a $10/month adobe account which keeps it up to date) I was not aware of the latest updates.

Great detail! I like how the stem just fades away through the foreground.
