Guilty, as charged!

Thanks. That’s good to know. Also noted was your comment that you don’t bother 
with in-camera “stacking,” preferring to do your own stacking after taking a 
sequence of focus bracketed shots.

I think I have it figger'd out now, and I’ll try not to confabulate the two 
again.

Good point. I’m using Lexar 1000x UHS-2 cards, and have not noticed the 
slow-down phenomenon you refer to.

That could also be the difference between the E-M5 and E-M1.

That’s my assumption, as well, but with the Arduino, it should be dead simple 
to do some comparisons.
