Hello,
I really like PyImageFuser because it makes exposure fusion really
simple. But: When it doesn't give a good result with default parameters,
I can't see anything change when changing the parameter sliders (and
regenerating the preview).
I'm using the Windows version.
What's wrong? Do I have to do anything else for changed parameters to
take effect?

Best regards, Joachim

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.

github: https://github.com/hvdwolf/PyImageFuser
Releases: https://github.com/hvdwolf/PyImageFuser/releases

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.
