Exciting Updates from Pictomic: Visere Captura 3.0, Focus Stacking Rail, and the Launch of the Pictomic Photographers Network (PPN)

At Pictomic, innovation and community are at the heart of what we do. We’re excited to announce several major updates that enhance the capabilities of our software, expand our hardware offerings, and foster deeper connections within the professional product photography community.

Introducing Visere Captura 3.0

We are proud to announce the release of Visere Captura 3.0 — our most powerful version yet. Designed with feedback from our users and the evolving needs of the industry, this latest release introduces several significant improvements:

• WebP Support for 360° Creation:

  The 360 Creator in Visere Captura can now generate interactive 360s using WebP images and animated WebP sequences. WebP, a Google-preferred image format, offers superior compression with fewer artifacts than JPEGs and much smaller file sizes compared to PNGs — all while supporting alpha transparency for seamless backgrounds.

• Updated Canon SDK Integration:

  Version 3.0 includes support for Canon SDK 13.19.0, ensuring that Visere Captura now officially supports Canon cameras running on Mac OS 15.x.x (Sequoia). This keeps our software in lockstep with the latest hardware and operating system advancements.

• Full Support for Focus Stacking Rail System:

  Version 3.0 also delivers complete integration with our newly released automated focus stacking railing system, providing a seamless hardware-software experience for precision macro and jewelry photography.
