Yes, that looks pretty good, Moose. You say that the camera performs the
change of focus automatically, but over what range of distances?
For this function, Focus Stacking, with the combining done in-camera, one has no control over that. Listening to the
little tiny shutter noises, it's quite a few. I don't know if the camera is smart enough to use some sort of nearest and
furthest focus to decide.
"The camera shoots a number of images, automatically shifting the focus in each
image. These can then be combined
into a composite image with a large depth of field. Two images are recorded, the
first frame and the composite image."
Taking the shots is quick, a moment or two. Combining them in-camera takes a
few seconds.
For Focus Bracketing, where JPEGs are output for each focal position, to be combined later, there are three choices each
for relative steps of focusing distance, Narrow/Normal/Wide and for number of shots, 10/20/30. This function on the E-M1
and E-M5 II works slightly differently and is far more flexible.
