Following on from the forum post on the uses of a stereo microscope, here is my hack for focus stacking - much faster to use than a tripod. It is just a cheap translucent plastic container with a circular hole cut in the top. Place it over the object, focus etc and hold the camera down hard and press the shutter. Mine is 5 cm high.
It is not my idea. It came from Murray Fagg at CANB.

Very smart!! Maybe the cover itself could replace the diffuser if one only wants to do focus stacking for the day
Very useful, thanks👍
