I tried. The results are not impressive. Here's the link to a google drive folder with the input and a few outputs.
close.tif and .jpg is the up close image. far.tif and .jpg is the far image. I used the tif files. simple.tif is the result of just doing the simple interface. Given that the camera was on a tripod it sure seemed to have cut out a lot. advanced.tif is the result of doing the advanced interface. I have no idea why it twisted the images, didn't leave me with a square image and still cut out a lot. try-lens.tif is the result of using the advanced interface to load the files and decrease the fov for the near image. I just guessed. I then used the simple interface to align and stitch the images together with the focus stacking. I did use the panorama editor or whatever it's called to get the image square. While this is the best version, there are still a lot of shadows around the trees from what I assume is the blurry part of the trees from the near image getting pulled into the far image. Is there an obvious fix for this? Clearly, I have no idea how to use the advanced interface but the simple one just doesn't work for these photos. Is there something that describes what the simple interface does at the advanced level, as a way to learn this interface? So maybe I could start there and then be able to ask some slightly more intelligent questions.
