the results and prints are absolutely stunning. My understanding is that, the E-M5 II can do Hi-Res with Focus Bracketing. And then, all I've got to do is feed the 64MP RAW converted TIFF files into Helicon and voila.

This is not my understanding. As far as I know you must focus bracket manually when using HighRes. Applies to both em5.2 and em1.2.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned by someone else in another post (haven't read all). Even more sorry if I am wrong!

No automatic focus, or any other bracketing, when in Hi-Res mode. As mentioned, you can do it all manually. In fact just last night I did some HR shots in a slot, with 5 manually adjusted focus points, by moving focus point with the direction pad and then autofocusing. Just let the tripod settle down a few seconds, then shoot. Worked like a champ.

I should clarify the above - no automatic focus bracketing; autofocus still works! Sorry for my poor wording.

hi res on the em52 is automatic incamera, and the em52 has auto focus bracket as well ,but you have to stack them on the computer.

But, the question is, will it do Hi Res AND focus bracketing at same time? I believe the answer is no, for any of the Olympus cameras that have both Hi Res and focus bracketing.

it wound have to take 50 photos to do that that would be the perfect macro camera and wipe out the rest of the camera world ,so i cant see it coming any time soon

Why? It wouldn't be hard at all to implement, and it could be way more than 50 shots or somewhat less depending on how it's used... Either way, it'd still be better than doing it manually since it'd be faster (so less change in light between shots etc). There's really no technical limitation for them up add bracketing options to HR (focus or otherwise)...
