JustUs7 - yep, you're right, of course. I raced to the processing of the stacking, and not the creation of the images.

Question: what's your experience with manual focus to capture stacked images ? For nature/wildlife images, I have find the focus peaking sufficient in setting multiple focus points. It's not as fast as a built-in feature. For macro images, where a lot of images are frequently needed, the built-in capability would be great.

If I understand you correctly. For a landscape scene. Lock in on a tripod. Then, using manual focus, turn the focus ring and watch the focus peaking highlight the focus plane, taking manual captures (presumably with a trigger) as you advance the plane through the scene?  
Focus peaking is a great feature of mirrorless.  Never thought to us it that way but I might have to now!  Hoping for Canadian Rockies or Canyonlands (if the border is still closed) this summer.

Might be a little challenging to avoid movement and get precise spacing for razor thin focus planes when doing macro though.
