Aperture
Given that pictures shot at very small apertures (high f-numbers) may lack
definition, we recommend that you choose apertures wider (f-numbers
lower) than f/8–f/11.

Focus Shift Photography
•
The shutter speed and the time needed to record the image may vary
from shot to shot. As a result, the interval between a shot being
recorded and the start of the next shot may vary.
•
Shooting ends when focus reaches infinity, and consequently
depending on the focus position at the start of shooting, shooting may
end before the selected number of shots has been taken.
•
Regardless of the option selected for Custom Setting c3 [Power off
delay] > [Standby timer], the standby timer will not expire while
shooting is in progress.
•
If you are using a flash, choose an interval longer than the time needed
for the flash to charge. If the interval is too short, the flash may fire at
less than the power needed for full exposure.
•
If shooting cannot proceed at current settings, for example because
shutter speed is set to "Bulb" or "Time", a warning will be displayed.
•
Changing camera settings while focus shift photography is in progress
may cause shooting to end.
