That is my understanding. Even tiny movements on a tripod seem to be
enough.

I know, I checked. I wondered if the software would qualify for a
possible Moose free trial--prolly not.
Still, an interesting approach. I think the software is overambitious
as to the scope of the actions.

Yeh,
Seems to me they are milking that sensor (very very nice though it
is) for all
it is worth.
Might it be that a better one is not yet available? Oly ain't makin'
'em.
In my recent FF, APS-C, 4/3 comparison,I also downloaded DPR's 1600 ISO
studio
shots for the E-M5 and GX7. At 100%, with
the area I used, I just can't see any difference between the Olys, and
the Panny
is very, very close to the same. On
some test shots I did a while ago on a very different subject, Viewer 3
did a
better job of NR than ACR, with no false
color artifacts. But on this one, is was not good, even when I turned
it and
sharpening off, the result was overdone -
or I can't figure out what I did before.
Suspect using the sensor shaker to offset the images and
combing them will be nicely implemented. Strikes me as largely
identical to
using Photoacute in post from multiple
shots.
It's not clear to me how photoacute works. Certainly they don't have
precisely
places overlapping images. Does it depend
in part on minute movement of the image on the sensor between shots?
That they
require profiles by camera and lens
suggests it's not much like the sensor shift solution Hassy uses and
Oly is
rumored to be about to use. I can't see
where it would depend on the lens. Looking at their instructions for
making
shots to allow them to create a profile, it
again looks like something quite different from the sensor shift model.

The algorithm is more elegant than merely stacking in photoshop to
average out
noise. Whether it truly adds back
"resolution" per se
or really just acutance and more accurate edge placement is not
really clear
to me.
Clearer edge definition and placement comes pretty close to a
definition of
resolution, no?
In some situations it seems it might even be able to infer detail
above the
Nyquist frequency.
Has anyone tried this? Even if not, what do you think?
They only cover two of the camera/lens combos I care about, E-M5 with
12-50 and
Panny 20/1.7
I can see it now--Multi-row HDR pano, focus stacked, and resolution
enhanced
with Photoacute--gives me a headache
thinking about it and might take up half a HD.
New generation improved sensor
I think you are waiting on Sony or Panny for that.
