Alright, now it became clearer to me, that silent shutter thing.
About that focus stacking: it's good that something is available "onboard". However, I remain at "half hearted implementation" becaus I know the difference of a well implememted process like Helicon focus provides and a so-so with this kind of abstract numbers like CamRanger's app has as well. The latter includes lots of guessing or long rows of test shooting. All I knks is it depends very much on lens and aperture, but also on blend mode algorithms. And I don't fancy the perspective of blending 30 or more 46 MP RAW shots... So, I'm still looking forward to Arsenal's approach.
So, for product shots I still prefer the external dedicated software with bigger Live View on acreen. It,s my simple mind which wants a focus stacking option like
Setting Aperture
Tapping on the screen to define closest distance
Tapping again to set farest distance
Camera calculates the necessary number of shots
Tapping "start"
Camera puts mirror up and start the focus row
Mirror down
Calculating the RAW
Done.
This could be done quite fast in 7 or 9 shots per second, like a Lytro doesn't need much time to create that focus field. Just with mind blowing details....
