Thanks for the answer. I was wondering if you used videos or individual pictures and I think I have the answer now.
If you want to automate the aquisition of focus-stacked images of very small subjects at different angles, you could try this : https://github.com/evo-biomech/scAnt (if you dont already know about it). Mine cost me around 300 or 400€ to build (camera not included) and a bit of work. Maybe it could work with your camera.
I use a homemade light box and a hand-cranked turntable. I use black velvet as the backdrop, though it’s not quite perfect because it has lint on it. My camera is a Canon EOS R10, and I’m experimenting with macro adapter rings. Nothing is quite perfect yet, and I’m doing a lot of trial and error.
Especially when it comes to practice, I still lack the knowledge to remove unnecessary splats.
I’m also trying focus bracketing, but with small objects, I can’t get clean edges and end up with a lot of noisy splats.
All in all, I do this as a hobby, and once I feel more confident, I’d like to try working on a beetle or insect.
