+There are a couple of other resources that will help in dealing with motion.
+First, learn about the differences between PMax and DMap.  There's a quick summary at [[:stacker:docs:faqlist#what_is_the_difference_between_pmax_and_dmap|"What is the difference between PMax and DMap?]].  In general, DMap is more tolerant of subject motion, though it may require adjusting a couple of parameters.  That aspect is outlined at [[:stacker:docs:faqlist#how_should_i_choose_those_dmap_settings|"How should I choose those DMap settings"]] and in more detail in the tutorial [[:stacker:docs:tutorials:tutorial003|"How To Use DMap"]].
+Second, learn how to detect & confirm subject motion in the first place.  See for example [[:stacker:docs:faqlist#how_can_i_detect_movement_in_my_stack|How Can I Detect Movement In My Stack?]].  Similar techniques can be used while you're in the process of retouching, as shown in the video tutorials [[:stacker:docs:videotutorials:retouching001:index|"Introduction to Retouching"]] and [[:stacker:docs:videotutorials:retouching002:index|"Advanced Retouching"]].
+**How Many Images Do I Need?**
 Sometimes people ask "How many images do I need, and where should they be focused?"

 Sometimes you can do that by focusing specifically on each element  you care about.
-Other times it's best to just methodically step focus from foreground to background, or vice versa.  In that case, you might like to use a focus-stacking calculator like **FocusStacker**, by [[http://www.georgedouvos.com/douvos/OptimumCS-Pro%3B_TrueDoF-Pro%3B_FocusStacker.html|georgedouvos.com]]. It's an iPad & iPhone app that interactively calculates focus distances based on your lens and scene.  Alternatively, you can use the precomputed tables **[[:stacker:docs:tables:landscapes|HERE]]** to do essentially the same thing.
