Well, that's too bad. I looked in the manual and it said to check the
Oly site for compatible lenses. I found Kazuo Unno's article and, IIRC,
he was using the 40-150 Pro and the 60mm macro. But there was nothing
that said only these lenses would work. I guess I'm not really
surprised. These lenses have to make very tiny focusing steps to carry
this off at close distances. Probably much more precision than normal
lenses. Maybe there will have to be a 60mm macro added to my equipment box.

I'll have to try it on the E-M1.Well, ah, er, "At this time, only the 60mm f/2.8 Macro, 12-40mm f/2.8 Pro and 40-150mm f/2.8 Pro are compatible with Focus Stacking mode." I have one of those lenses, but not that camera. I'm guessing you don't have any of those lenses? In the best discussion and examples I've seen, KAZUO UNNO says "The Stylus TG-3 and TG-4 Tough cameras come equipped with a Focus Stacking Mode which automatically composites shots taken at different focal positions. This feature made these cameras indispensable tools for me ..." <http://cameras.olympus.com/stack/en/> He then goes on to tell , with wonderful examples, how the E-M1 Focus Bracketing and Stacking work wonders - with the 60/2.8 macro lens, 40-150/2.8 PRO and teleconverter. You can use Focus Bracketing, but those shots must be combined later in software, just like manual focus stacking.
