Helicon Remote
一款兼容Canon和Nikon部分相機遠程操控的手機軟體。
Helicon Remote可讓您將Canon或Nikon數碼單反相機連接到電腦或移動設備,並自動進行對焦(DoF)包圍,包圍曝光(HDR)和定時拍攝。它甚至可以將所有這些方法結合在一起!在我們的視頻教程中查看它的實際操作。
Helicon Remote allows you to tether your Canon or Nikon DSLR camera to a computer or a mobile device and automates focus (DoF) bracketing, exposure bracketing (HDR), and time lapse photography.
Please have a look at the main use cases of Helicon Remote and choose which ones will fit the best into your usual workflow:
1. Tethered capture of images and video - shoot remotely to automate the whole process, control all the camera settings remotely even in the most awkward camera position and view angle, minimize camera shaking and make perfectly sharp and precise shots.
2. Focus bracketing - set up your camera, tether it to your computer or telephone, adjust the camera settings and let it make a series of shots with focus shifting from shot to shot to be stacked into a fully-focused image.
3. Exposure bracketing - take a series of shots with different exposure for further merging into a high dynamic range (HDR) image.
4. Time lapse - adjust the settings and let your camera make series of shots with the set time interval and see how your object is being changing over time.
5. Burst shooting - control high-speed shooting from your computer or telephone - set the number of shots or just press the Start and Stop buttons.
6. Burst focus bracketing - set the camera on macro rails and combine burst shooting mode with focus bracketing to get a series of incrementally focused images made with minimum time interval.
Helicon Remote allows to use any combination of focus, exposure bracketing and time lapse shooting.
Helicon Remote allows to use any combination of focus, exposure bracketing and time lapse shooting.
Helicon Remote also allows wi-fi tethered shooting. Helicon Remote for iOS connects to a camera only via Wi-Fi. Please check the list of supported wi-fi cameras here.
Another very useful feature of Helicon Remote for mobile devices is geotagging - travel around and make the shots, meanwhile info on your current GPS coordinates and shooting direction will be included to the image metadata.
Helicon Remote can also control StackShot, Wemacro macro rails and Trinamic stepper motors, devices typically used for focus (DoF) bracketing in macro, extreme macro and micro photography.

系留拍攝圖像和視頻以及遠程攝像機設置控制
使用Helicon Remote,您可以遠程捕獲和查看全分辨率JPEG / RAW圖像,以檢查其焦點和曝光。您還可以查看和捕獲視頻。此功能非常適合微距拍攝,當您的相機經常處於尷尬的位置,並且您希望避免因按下按鈕而導致相機抖動。
使用Helicon Remote,您可以更改大多數相機設置:光圈,快門速度,ISO,閃光模式,閃光補償,白平衡,色溫,圖像格式,曝光補償和驅動/拍攝模式。
Focus Bracketing (EDoF)
Helicon Remote可自動對焦包圍。您可以設置要對焦的對象的最近點和最遠點,程序會完成所有其餘點,在當前設置下計算一次拍攝的景深以及需要拍攝的照片數量。
Helicon Remote可實現精確聚焦:您只需單擊或點按實時視圖即可聚焦鏡頭。然後突出顯示聚焦區域,以便您可以使用當前設置預覽DoF並進行增量聚焦步驟。
Exposure Bracketing(HDR)
使用Helicon Remote,您可以組合曝光包圍(HDR)和對焦包圍(DoF)。這允許您使用HDR和擴展景深創建圖像。
您可以設置多達15個曝光步驟,這比大多數相機允許的步驟多,並且可以根據需要設置多個聚焦步驟。
Helicon Remote可以拍攝超長時間曝光 - 使用支持此功能的相機最長可達32分鐘:所有佳能相機,尼康D600 / D800 / D4 / D7100 / D5200以及後來的尼康相機。
Time Lapse
延時攝影是隨著時間的推移攝影,即當您將相機設置為每隔幾秒,幾分鐘或幾小時自動拍攝時。
你為什麼要這樣做?如果你的物體隨著時間的推移而變化,你可能想要捕捉它的不同階段,然後將鏡頭組合成一部引人入勝的電影。
使用Helicon Remote,您可以將延時攝影與對焦和曝光包圍相結合。
例如,您可以捕捉一個花蕾開口,一片水果成熟,在一天的繁忙街道上交通 - 或任何適合您的想像。
Burst shooting
所有支持的相機都可以在連拍模式下拍攝,即連續快速拍攝一系列照片。它可能對拍攝運動中的物體特別有用。Helicon Remote可以遠程控制相機的連拍模式 - 根據您的相機型號,設置系列中的拍攝張數或按開始和停止按鈕。
它不僅可以方便地放置相機並通過筆記本電腦,平板電腦或手機遠程完成所有調整,而且還可以使相機完全靜止,避免因按下快門釋放按鈕而抖動相機。
Burst focus bracketing using StackShot macro rails
Helicon Remote現在可以使用相機的連拍/連拍模式進行連續高速拍攝,同時在StackShot導軌上連續移動相機。
請觀看下面的簡短視頻:
Helicon Remote可自動調整攝像機速度,以匹配攝像機拍攝速度和當前DOF。
Hyperfocal distance calculator
Helicon Remote的這一功能不僅可以自動計算當前鏡頭的超焦距和拍攝條件,即定義所有物體可以接受的銳利距離,還可以在此超焦距處找到景深。任何指定的距離。
Hyperfocal distance calculator 非常容易使用 - 它自動定義光圈,焦距和混淆圓並立即計算結果。
Supported cameras
Helicon Remote supports Canon and Nikon DSLR and mirrorless cameras, as well as some of the recent Sony mirrorless models. See the complete list of supported camera models. Older DSLR cameras without live view are not supported.
NB! We are aware of all the cameras that are released, each of them is checked for compatibility and if compatible it's added to the Supported cameras list as soon as possible. If you do not find the camera on the list it means that it's not supported due to certain technical reasons and most likely will not be supported in the future, unless it's a new Canon or Nikon DSLR that has just been released.
Sony cameras support cable connection only.

Image quality that impresses
Accurate rendition of colors
Processing of images with 16 bit precision preserves all the hues and details, exceeding dynamic range of camera sensors. Color profiles support enables accurate color reproduction and correct keeping of color information in the output file.
Efficient and easy RAW development
Handling RAW files have never been easier! Open RAW files in Helicon Focus or export them from Lightroom. Fully adjustable development controls, built-in and manufacturer’s codecs will satisfy even the most demanding user.
State-of-the-art processing algorithms
Helicon Focus became a de facto standard in focus stacking. Elaborate computing algorithms are standing behind each processed stack. Unique team of R&D engineers and software developers is constantly on the forefront of innovations and is always inspired to attempt the impossible.
Advanced interpolation options
Helicon Focus uses the most advanced resampling algorithms to preserve every detail.
Maximum performance
Multi-core processing
Helicon Focus keeps pace with all modern advances, exploiting the capacity of the last-gen processors to the utmost. The software utilizes all cores for image processing, allowing to cut down the rendering time.
Stack length is no more a limit
Even long stacks of hundreds of high-resolution images are not a problem for Helicon Focus. With this software even a usual laptop in the field will be able to handle huge stacks of RAW files.
64 bit support
Got a top notch work station? Helicon Focus will use 100% of its memory and processor power!
Getting the maximum of your processor
Helicon Focus automatically detects the processor type and all available features of modern processors. All the data manipulations are managed with modern processor instructions (SSE, SSE2, AVX, FMA3).
Perfectionist’s dream coming true
RAW-in-DNG-out mode
With this feature of Helicon Focus you can process RAW files in native color space and save result as DNG file. Read more about it here.
Smart retouching
With Helicon Focus you get truly unique retouching brushes just at your fingertips. Once the stacking’s over, finish the result with retouching tools that no usual image editor has. No trivial solutions – only focus stacking specials. Copy areas from aligned source images or combine areas from several outputs – with Helicon Focus you get enhanced retouching capacity with streamlined interface.
Helping grid
If you are the one who likes everything to look perfect, use a special grid to do the fine and precise retouching of the 100% scale high-resolution image. Go cell by cell not to miss a thing.
Scientific scale
Make everyone understand how small the subject you shot is – add a scale bar to the resulting image.
Professional workflow tools
Split and enqueue stacks
Give an unlimited number of tasks to Helicon Focus at once, and leave it to deal with all of them. Shoot as many stacks as you wish, open the whole folder for Helicon Focus to split it into stacks and put them in queue for further rendering.
Command line
Streamline your workflow by calling Helicon Focus from other applications. Pass the parameters via command line and let the software do the job.
Smooth integration with Lightroom
Don’t change your usual image processing environment – export stacks to Helicon Focus right from Lightroom. Helicon Focus plug-in enables seamless interaction between the two programs, making your usual workflow perfectly optimized.
Helicon Remote
Tightly integrated with Helicon Focus, this software will take you to the next level of stack shooting technology. Tethered photography with Helicon Remote is progressive and sophisticated, allowing you to capture images remotely, to manage the shooting process from your computer or even telephone. It will help you to make a perfect stack, the rest is up to Helicon Focus.
Helicon 3d Viewer
Export the stacking result to Helicon 3d Viewer, and advanced computing algorithms will exactly reconstruct the natural 3D view of the shot subject. Easy to add on the Web and share with colleagues and community, 3D visualization gives a completely realistic view. Adjust the relief type and the viewpoint, add light source and save the 3D model rotation video in a fraction of a minute.
Creating a micropanorama
Shoot several images with your microscope or DSLR and Helicon Focus will seamlessly stitch them into a perfectly merged panorama image. Adjust the main controls and this software will align the images and match the pattern automatically.
