Re: The Cell Phones Are Coming for Us, Too!

Maybe eventually. But the EVF of a camera prevents glare and makes precise framing more likely, and many cameras now have Focus Stacking/Bracketing. Mine creates a fifteen image IN Camera Focus Stacked jpeg with good resolution. When Focus Stacking, I typically use a tripod, and may use a Raynox, and in this case also Extension Tubes. The problem with macro is that DOF is typically very small, and any minute movement while shooting will blow the image, stacked or not.

I was just working this image today in learning mosses. I have identified it, a difficult task in this genus, which requires very precise leaf detail. The leaves here are about 1.5mm, which makes the teeth on the leaves nearly infinitesimal.
