Enhance your creative control with Automated Frame Averaging
Automated Frame Averaging effectively enables the capture of long exposure images without the need for filters. This new type of sequencing tool automatically captures and combines a series of images into a single RAW file, which reduces noise, extends dynamic range, and protects highlights. Automated Frame Averaging allows hundreds of successive user-specified captures to be combined into a single RAW file. The frames are automatically recorded, combined, and presented as a single RAW file with virtually no noise and improved dynamic range. Automated Frame Averaging effectively enables you to capture long exposures without the need for filters, while ensuring your highlights remain.
