Focus Shift Photography: Restrictions
Focus-shift photography cannot be combined with some camera features,
including:
•
video recording,
•
long time-exposures ("Bulb" or "Time"),
•
the self-timer,
•
high-speed frame capture,
•
bracketing,
•
multiple exposures,
•
HDR overlay,
•
interval-timer photography, and
•
time-lapse video recording.
A
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.
A
Close-ups
Because focus depth is reduced at short focus distances, we recommend
choosing smaller focus steps and increasing the number of shots when
photographing subjects close to the camera.
