AK...it's odd how you always take me the wrong way. I'm not sure why! I think you need to go back to Psych 101 if these are the skills you're using. How can my asking you a question about how you are doing stacking with the Stackshot, which I don't own and don't know how it works (especially with the Sony camera), be my trying to impress everyone? All I am trying to get is a simple walk-through description of how you do automated stacking with the Stackshot, but you can't seem to do that. My main reason for asking is to see if the process works well enough, without too many workarounds, such that I would go through the trouble of modifying my setup to work with a Stackshot-compatible stepper and convert over to a Stackshot controller. Your answer of "yes, I use an automated system" doesn't tell me enough to make this decision. What are the connections? Is it fully automated once you start it going, or is there manual intervention required during the process? Come on, just answer the question. This is literally the 6th time I've asked how your automation setup works with the A7RII.
