Canon R5 Mirrorless — Focus Stacking

Here’s another test of the Canon R5’s focus stacking. My more detailed post on Focus Stacking for Focus Bracketing can be found here.

Blend of 10 images merged together in Photoshop to get the entire set of blooms in focus.
  • First photo in the series of Focus Bracketing. Notice the focus point is on the front flowers. Click through the series and you’ll see the focus point change to different flowers.
  • Second photo in the series. Notice the change in focus? It’s small.
  • Third photo in the series. Notice the change in focus? It’s small.
  • 4th photo in the series. Notice the change in focus? It’s small.
  • 5th photo in the series. Notice the change in focus? It’s small.
  • 6th photo in the series. Notice the change in focus? It’s small.
  • 7th photo in the series. Notice the change in focus? It’s small.
  • 8th photo in the series. Notice the change in focus? It’s small.
  • 9th photo in the series. Notice the change in focus? It’s small.
  • 10th photo in the series. Notice the change in focus? It’s now on the back bloom at the bottom.

Here’s a view of my menu setting for this series of photos.

Canon, Olympus, and other mirrorless systems have focus stacking. Here’s my review of focus stacking using Olympus.

So far, the Canon R5 has impressed me with its focus bracketing. I can’t wait to get out and work with it on different subjects.

Have you worked with Focus Stacking or Focus Bracketing on your camera? Results? I’d love to hear from you.
