Using the 907X Test image. F/5.6. 80 images. STE P S IZE For high-quality work you should normally select Small or Medium step size. For less critical work you can also use Large or Extra Large. Large or Extra Large can also be used in certain situations when the type of subject allows. To find what works best for your situation, we encourage you to make experiments. For this test two different step sizes was used , Small and Extra Large.
Using the 907X As the camera will automatically make all the calculations for you, the only thing that really needs consideration is how many images to make in the sequence. In most cases, it is best to set a number that is too high rather than too low. The camera will automatically stop when the lens cannot be focused further or closer. The step size is related to the depth of field (DoF) produced by the camera at a given aperture.
Using the 907X EX AMPLES This page shows a few examples to give you a starting point for which settings to use. Best results will always be achieved from your own experiments.
