    Awesome! Is this a stack? Posted 4 years ago

      Yes, all except the first one (full insect on dark cloth) are stacks.

      If you open it full screen, you'll notice it has tons of detail. Yet at the same time, the field of view is limited. Ideally, you'd have the entire insect at this magnification and detail level. That's actually possible, just extraordinarily time consuming:



      On my stack setup, I can only move forward and backward, so you're stacking depth. In the video, they keep the camera steady, it never moves. Instead, they move the insect. Up/down, side ways, basically create multiple stacks, which are then stitched together, similar to a panorama photo.

      One of the most extreme examples of this I think you've seen before:

        I definitely opened full screen and zoomed all around. The detail is awesome. And, an interesting video and innovative use of a game controller. Although, the music was unforgiveable. Posted 4 years ago

          Yeah, that's Youtube. Video makers must pick music free of rights, which tend to be crappy. Posted 4 years ago
