I do like doing things at maximum magnification (hence why I’ve been happy without an AF macro for last few years of mirrorless), so the lack of focus completely isn’t a problem. A common problem in macro is lighting and a short MFD and big hood can be a disaster. I especially like how small the diameter of the lens is at the end. On the 2.5-5x laowa lens, it’s pretty special. This gave me confidence of having everything snapped correctly.

In terms of why this over focus rail, it was mainly for testing, but having used a rail quite a lot over last 2 years, I have often managed a few missed shots that muck up a stack. Helicon Remote Android APP Helicon Remote is a utility for tethered shooting and camera remote control Helicon Remote is a utility for tethered shooting and camera remote control compatible with all recent Nikon and Canon DSLR cameras (except for D3000 / D3100 / D3200 / D3300 / D3400 - these are NOT SUPPORTED. I also used f4 whereas a tighter aperture would also have meant fewer shots of course. So no focus rail needed (although I did use one to get the foreground shot perfectly at the MFD of the lens for 1:1. Regards to helicon remote, it’s an app (I used tethered on my mac but mobile version also available) where you tell it the start focus and end focus points, it collects camera settings from camera and works out ideal number of shots, then cycles through, snapping, minute movement in focus, then snaps again. You’re all right, I probably went over the top with the 400 shots! That first shot though was around 30 degrees angle to the platform so there was a lot of depth from front to rear of shot.
