I decided to test out Helicon Focus after hearing some good things about it. Thought I'd shoot a watch my son gave me for my 40th. Which turned the shoot from a quick test to a marathon effort and hair pulling!
Below is the final shot I got before I threw the watch, camera and lights through the window, but it really, really bugs me. I could not get rid of the large reflection in the glass, bottom left of face, no matter what I did - small light source, large light source, 360 deg rotation, high, low, angled, flagged, polarised... I just couldn't get the face lit without getting the glare. The face is quite heavily domed around the edge, unlike any watch I've photographed before. Please tell me I missed something obvious?
