In anticipation of better weather and conditions for exploring, I took this combo out in our neighborhood park to prove the concept so to speak, just to see how much IQ I could wring out of the lens and sensor combo.

Images were processed to taste in Lightroom, then I used Adobe enhance details before importing them as a layers into photoshop for auto-alignment and focus stacking.

Pretty pleased with this first attempt and yeah, some large files and images in the end with lots of details to poor over.

Excellent IQ.

You could also combine very close elements (like the leaf) with the landscapes to produce some interesting perspective effects (all being in focus).

Here's a quick sample I did with the M6ii + EF-M 11-22 (showing closest focus). It's handheld with some breeze so it's not entirely sharp tho. It's a full-size image...

Have fun!

Thanks for example.  Yes, the M6ii and I are going to do many walking trips once the weather gets nicer
