You can’t use the Focus Bracketing Mode with flash though. However you can shoot 14 fps with an external flash and “cut slices” right through your subject using the “Lean Technique” for stacking later (note: you need to “tape over” the hotshoe’s communication contacts in order to achieve 14 fps with the flash).

ps. Info here provided for others (I know you know this stuff already ).

Nope I’m clueless as usual R2 but I’m curious, stacking with flash would be really useful.

I did see you mention this with the Laowa 65mm, but no details there either

At the moment I’m able to take a “few” shots in manual by leaning in / moving in between shots, and then stack them (or sometimes manually clone the best bits), but getting the camera to do a burst with flash should give better results

Care to provide an idiot guide ?
