Hi, Harry!
Sounds fascinating and useful to me!
I went to the releases page, it mentions a pyimagefuser-0.5.0-amd64.deb
package but only has links to an AppImage.
I don't do AppImages. Link for DEB package? I have Debian 11.

Hi,
PyImageFuser is a Python3 PySimpleGUI program to exposure fuse bracketed
images, reduce noise in stacks and do focus stacking. It uses
align_image_stack and enfuse to accomplish this.

In 2009-2010 I wrote ImageFuser in Applescript and released that as a
bundled app for MacOS (MacOS/X at that time). After leaving MacOS for
Linux, I also wrote KImagefuser for Linux, but the used Kommander
scripting died.
In the past couple of weeks I wrote PyImageFuser: a GPLv3 Python3 GUI
frontend for enfuse and align_image_stack (both GPLv2), written
in/using PySimpleGUI. (The tkinter based version)
Why did I write PyImageFuser? Why not use a few scripts, Hugin or Lux
(pv) for the same purpose? Or use builtin camera/phone HDR options?
- Well, I do use 3 scripts for enfuse and align_image_stack (and lux and
align_image_stack) but they do not allow much tweaking.
- Hugin is for me an excellent panorama tool, but it's like using a 70+
functions swiss army knife when you only need a toothbrush and a
toothpick. Next to that: it doesn't give an as flexible option to tweak
align_image_stack and enfuse if you do not know all command line options
from the top of your head.
- Lux (pv) also does an excellent job, but is also more aimed at "live"
panorama making and I still can't get used to the interface. Tweaking
options for exposure blending are (for me) more difficult, and
align_image_stack, when needed, can only be used from the command line.
- Cameras simply lack the CPU-power to do a good exposure bracketing and
completely lack the power for aligning images. Phones nowadays have
horse power enough to do both on sets of 3 images, but lack features and
still have small sensors.
- And finally: Very simple, I could do it (and even very simple using
PyimpleGUI) and I wanted to have something "dedicated" for this kind of
work.
I privately only use Linux and Chromebooks. Business wise I use Windows.
Occasionally I touch a Mac. All those systems have their own
shortcut/keyboard combinations, which I by now don't use anymore.
PyImageFuser is only meant for exposure bracketing, noise reduction and
focus stacking using a conventional user interface ;).
If you are interested in PyImageFuser
<https://github.com/hvdwolf/PyImageFuser/tree/main> you can download it
from the Releases <https://github.com/hvdwolf/jExifToolGUI/releases>
page. It still needs further tweaking (and undoubtedly bug fixing and
platform "hardening"), but it does what I want it to do.
