Today's question from Susan T. is, “Hey David, I recently got myself a macro lens, and I’ve been having a blast taking super close-up photos of everything in my house. I’m having trouble getting some things entirely in focus, even at f/32. Is that normal, and what can I do about it?” Go to http://www.AskDavidBergman.com to submit your photo question, see David's gear list, and view the episode archive. 00:00 Introduction 00:57 Minimum Focusing Distance and Magnification 02:38 Depth of Field Challenges 02:53 Lens Diffraction and the Sweet Spot 05:05 Watch Photography 05:42 Focus Bracketing 08:12 Focus Stacking for Landscapes 08:27 Photoshop Focus Stacking 09:14 Dedicated Focus Stacking Software 09:39 Tilt-Shift Lenses 10:26 Outro SUBSCRIBE AND BE PART OF THE ADORAMA FAMILY: ➥ https://www.youtube.com/user/adoramaTV __________________________________ Be the first to shop our great deals and sales by signing up for emails from Adorama! https://www.adorama.com/MyAccount/Login __________________________________ ✘ GEAR USED: Canon RF 85mm f/1.2 L USM Lens https://www.adorama.com/car8512.html?kbid=66043 Canon RF 100mm f/2.8 L Macro IS USM Lens https://www.adorama.com/car10028.html?kbid=66043 Canon EOS R5 Mark II Mirrorless Camera https://www.adorama.com/car5m2.html?kbid=66043 Manfrotto 454 Positioning Plate https://www.adorama.com/bg3419.html?kbid=66043 Novoflex CASTEL-MICRO Focusing Rack for Focus Stacking https://www.adorama.com/nvcastelmcro.html?kbid=66043 Canon TS-E 90mm f/2.8 Tilt & Shift Manual Focus Telephoto Lens https://www.adorama.com/ca9028afu.html?kbid=66043 Canon Control Ring Mount Adapter EF-EOS R https://www.adorama.com/carcrma.html?kbid=66043 ✘ PRODUCTION EQUIPMENT USED: Canon EOS R Mirrorless Full Frame Digital Camera Body https://www.adorama.com/car.html?kbid=66043 Canon RF 24mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM Lens https://www.adorama.com/car2418.html?kbid=66043 Manfrotto MT055XPRO3 Black Aluminum Tripod with MVH502AH Pro Video Head https://www.adorama.com/bg055xprob52.html?kbid=66043 CLAR Illumi Max 500 High Power 5600K LED Light https://www.adorama.com/clilmax500sl.html?kbid=66043 Glow EZ Lock Octa Quick XL Softbox With Bowens Mount (48") https://www.adorama.com/glsbez48octa.html?kbid=66043 Prograde cards and readers https://adorama.rfvk.net/jrL7KZ #macro #focusstacking #adorama __________________________________ ❐ LET'S GET SOCIAL ❏ ➥ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@adoramanyc ➥ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/adorama/ ➥ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/adorama/ ➥ Twitter https://twitter.com/adorama ❐ MORE ADORAMA ❏ ➥ Shop https://www.adorama.com/ ➥ Blog https://www.adorama.com/alc/ ➥ Adorama Events https://www.youtube.com/@AdoramaEvents __________________________________ Adorama for all your gear purchases: http://adorama.evyy.net/GZVAL One-on-one consultations with David: https://www.askdavidbergman.com/1on1/ Follow David on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidbergman/ Software: Helicon Focus https://www.heliconsoft.com/heliconsoft-products/helicon-focus/ Zerene Stacker https://www.zerenesystems.com/cms/stacker __________________________________ THANKS SO MUCH FOR WATCHING!
