I'm using DOF stacking script to create image s like this:
http://picasaweb.google.com/barret8/Inne#5445996797568569218However, because i don't use 'normal' macro mode, i had to modify the script so i can use it with max zoom setting (i use reversed old 58mm lens to achieve this magnification). I use 10mm or 100mm step, because smaller steps with such zoom setting is useless.
Everything works fine, but the problem is setting start value of focus. I need to hunt for correct setting by choosing different values, starting the script, verifying results, change settings, and so on.
What i would like to know is the value of current manual focus in camera mm units. This way i could just set the manual focus to start value, read it, set it inside the script, and start the script.
That would greatly improve the whole process. is it possible to display this value on screen?
i'm not sure if all this is clear for you, so if not then ask
