Morning Luggers,
Jayanand has pointed out privately that the proper term is focus stacking.
Wash those hands

Subject: [Leica] Focus Peaking

Encouraged by Jayanand?s efforts I stepped out on my deck and tried a couple 
of focus peaking landscape shots
with the Z7 and the kit lens.

Here?s the best one:

For comparison here is the same scene a few weeks earlier taken with the M10 
as a vertical pano:

There isn?t a lot of difference except in the corners where the FP frame is 
sharper - check the
yellow flowers lower right frame.

I think FP has a place in my multi panel panoramas that I like to print 
large on canvas. So I need to get
out with the tripod, the Z7 and the Leica R28 and get started. Thanks 
Jayanand. 

Too bad all the local parks are closed.

Stay well, wash those hands.

Howard.
