“I’ve been using MergeRaw for about six weeks now to blend focus brackets of intimate landscapes. I am blown away by it. Not only is it many times quicker than the main competitors but it also gives a more detailed result. I have even managed to make a few handheld stacks which would have been impossible with my previous software. It also copes with small amounts of subject movement, like when a leaf is shaking in a light breeze. Simply the best.”

“Wow! Merged a set of eight difficult focus-bracketed ORFs made with my OM-1. The result was cleaner and more accurate than the OM achieved in-camera, OM Workspace, ON1, and Macro Studio. Each of these lost highlight detail that was maintained with MergeRAW IN ONE CLICK!! I’ve been trying out options for focus stacking and so far MergeRAW produces the best result.”

“I first want to say how much I’ve been enjoying MergeRAW. You’ve solved one of the biggest headaches in my workflow, I can’t believe I’ve been rendering out TIFFs and averaging with Smart Objects in Photoshop. While I mourn all the lost time, I’m very much looking forward to creating new images using MergeRAW.”

“Thanks for a great plugin. I’m using pixel shift to scan film negatives and it totally beats having to go back and forth with Sony’s janky software for merging pixel shift images. ”

“Fast, easy, does exactly what it says and no annoying pop ups. Your raw stacking tools are so easy and work with all my cameras. I no longer have to do the round-trip to Photoshop. The Remove Built-in Profile tool — super useful! I have paid for software that is not half as good as what you have here.”

“I tried your focus-stacking mode for the first time yesterday on a difficult subject — a plant with many overlapping leaves and intersecting lines — and the result was impressive. MergeRAW stacked up well (pun intended) against Helicon Focus in all three of Helicon’s rendering methods.”
