My first Photo stack
by wozfromcov
One reply interested me and it was about a raynox dcr-250.
Now i have never heard of it before so i took a look and it looked interesting, interesting enough to buy one while deciding on my eventual macro lens purchase.
so new lens and not got a scooby as to how to photo stack an object.
Here is the Result
23 image photo stack in photshop
taken with.
Pentax k-s2
Bell & Howell 35-105mm f3.5-4.5 lens
Raynox DCR-250
I also used the Pentax WiFi app to fire the lens. Cluncky but it works.
Try this site too link It explains almost everything about Macro from top to bottom and I believe the author was a member here at one time.

You have "set" the subject on a nice little in-focus island. And effectively.
On the subject of macro lenses, I heartily recommend the Tamron-Di SP A/M 1:1 MACRO 90mm f2.8, which gives you excellent sharpness in center and very good sharpness in corners at almost all apertures; also very good bokeh. I find it a great lens for non-macro shots as well. Moderate cost. Closely following the Tamron is my ancient SMC Pentax-M MACRO 50mm f4, which is just superlative at very close ranges. Probably you can pick one up somewhere online at a really decent price. As for stacking, I'm new to it as well, and drove myself crazy stacking in Photoshop Elements. I bought Helicon Focus and discovered that if you can stand upright and breathe, you can stack in Helicon Focus.
