A big thanks to Other World Computing for loaning MPG the upgraded 2013 Mac Pro! Ditto for B&H Photo for loaning the 6-core Mac Pro. 64GB memory kit for 2013 Mac Pro provided by OWC.

Helicon Focus does focus stacking for increasing depth of field, thus defying the limits otherwise set by diffraction.

With four fewer cores and the same base clock speed, the 8-core 2013 Mac Pro beats out the 12 core 2010 model by a very noticeable 34%.

The 8-core 3.33 GHz Mac Pro beats out the 6-core 3.5 GHz by about 11%.
