Thank you, that's helpful. I start manually to see what comes into focus first, and then autofocus there so the camera can do its thing, but it keeps overriding me. I'll keep practicing and I think I might use something for the camera to focus on.

I really wish there was an automatic way to focus bracket the entire focus length!

You need to set the camera for back button focus, so it doesn't re-focus when you start the bracket series.  I had the same issue on my M6ii until I figured that out.

I too use auto focus on the nearest point, using back button focus, then rack the lens a bit to start before that point.
