I appreciate that you said that you didn't notice any problems with focus-bracketing step-size on your Canon. But unless you ran the same detailed tests that Jim Kasson does, what you did or didn't notice is no guarantee. With the Nikon Z7, plenty of people were satisfied with the results of its bracketing algorithm, Kasson didn't say that people weren't ever satisfied with the results, he said, based on careful testing, that the step size was too big for critical work.

Too big for critical work at 1:1 ??

Not sure at what magnification he did his tests, I read his posts on the matter a long time ago, and for this thread, just went back and grabbed the links, which I posted earlier. You'd have to go back and read details of his tests. I'm reasonably sure m was less than or equal to 1, though, since I'm not aware of any Z-mount lenses with AF (needed for camera-based bracketing) and m > 1.
