Merging raw images

Although I am a Nikon system user (current primary bodies Z8 and Z9), an upcoming assignment motivated me to seek – for specific work – a small volume less weight system. After demo-ing an OM OM-1 Mk II for a week, I have now added an OM-1 Mk II kit. Many current cameras will take multiple raw images and thus using the proprietary software application from the camera manufacturer produce a final de-mosaiced image file, a file that cannot be treated as “raw” under PL. Does PL have this ability to combine such multiple raw image files into a single image maintaining the full capabilities of PL raw processing? If so, for which systems/bodies?

If you are talking about the Olympus ORI files, then take a look at these links

It looks like my EM5 II is supported but I have never tried it.

Olympus Hi-Res files in PhotoLab4

I’m unsure whether Photolab 4 can open Olympus HiRes files; I don’t think PL4 can combine multi-shots but I think the Olympus Hi-Res files are combined in camera to create a single ORF file, albeit with a sidebar ORI (?) file. Any ideas?

OM-1 High-resolution shot too soft

I’ve noticed that the shots taken using the “High-Resolution Shot” mode of the OM-1 look very soft when processed with PL5. The high-res shot is essentially an in-body combination of 5 to 8 pictures taken in rapid succession with the sensor shifting 1 pixel at a time. Here is a example of a hand-held-high-resolution shot (HHHR shot) processed in DxO PL5: [P9142563 (2)] And here is the same HHHR shot processed with OM Workspace (the manufacturer’s processing software): [P9142563_DxO] Is th…
