Canon R7 Focus Bracketing Macro Photography

Canon R7 internal focus stacking is called Focus bracketing. In this video, Heather and I give it a try. Heather used her RF 100-500mm Telephoto and I used the RF 100mm Macro lens. We found it to be difficult but not impossible to get the camera to successfully stack when photographing live insects handheld. This feature should be used with the camera on a tripod and a subject that doesn't move but it was fun to try it handheld and in the end, we were able to come home with some nice images. Here is something that I failed to mention in the video. The lens will start its focus bracket where you focus and then focus further away with each subsequent shot so you want to focus on the closest part of your subject instead of focusing on the eye like you normally would in single-shot photography.
