How to batch process focus stacked photos in Lightroom

5 years 2 months ago #633251 by Garbo
I know this can be done in Photoshop, however can you combine focus stacked shots from within Lightroom?

You don't. From whence did you get the impression that it was possible?

Not from Lightroom, must Photoshop.

I didn't, that's why I was asking the question here.  Just seeing if it was possible.  I couldn't find it in Google searches under the terms I looked for.  And before writing it off as not possible, figured I would ask here.  

Thanks

Ah, I see. Yeah, LR can do pano and HDR processing, but that's as far as it goes.

+1 on that.  Seems like this would be a nice addition for Adobe to add to LR.

Yes that would be a nice addition, but if Adobe keeps adding more functions into LR, then that will prevent some from spending more money on Photoshop for those certain features.  They would lose revenue.   Or gain revenue from more buying LR as result of it being a post processing 'swiss army knife'.
