In this article, I show you how to shoot a focus stacking sequence and merge the images using Zoner Studio.  

Sometimes one photo isn’t enough. Batch Operations in Zoner Studio allows you to combine multiple shots into a single image, whether it’s a panorama, focus stack, exposure bracketing, long exposure, animation, or removing moving objects.   

Anyone who shoots panoramas, uses exposure bracketing, focus stacking, time-lapse photography, or burst mode will appreciate Autostack. Zoner Studio recognizes similar photos, groups them together, and if needed, merges them into a single image. 

Can’t find the photo you’re looking for? Well, that’s a thing of the past. Zoner Studio’s advanced search lets you search using almost any parameter you can think of. You can also use the new search feature for filtering, statistics, and a variety of other tasks.  

A dark photo with lost details, blocked shadows, and flat-looking tones—most photographers have been there. The shot itself might be great, but the image simply looks too dark. The good news? Brightening a photo in Zoner Studio only takes a moment. Here's how to adjust the exposure and bring back hidden details.

With just a few adjustments in the Develop module, the distracting object disappears from your photo. Most often, you’ll only need the Healing Brush or the Clone Stamp. Each of these tools is suited for slightly different types of retouching. In this guide, we’ll show you when to use each one and how to work with them.

A backlit photo often ends up with a dark foreground and overexposed background. The subject or landscape is in shadow, the sky lacks detail, and the image looks unbalanced. The good news is that with just a few adjustments, the photo can look significantly better. Let’s see how to quickly fix it in Zoner Studio.

The histogram is one of the most important tools in photo editing. It helps you set exposure, contrast, and colors correctly, regardless of your monitor’s quality. Learn how to read a histogram, identify blown-out highlights, and edit your photos so they look great on any device.  

One key skill that every photographer needs to master is photo resizing. Cameras and phones take pictures in the highest possible resolution, which can often be more than you need. And then they end up taking up more space than you want.

A color cast can ruin an otherwise great photo, whether it’s yellow lighting, blue shadows, or a green reflection from the surroundings. In this article, I show you how to easily remove color casts in Zoner Studio. From quick White Balance adjustments to more advanced techniques using masks and Color Shift.
