Everything what can be done with the combination of software and LiveView camera can be done by the camera itself, like focusstacking. Helicon software is only taking closest and farest distance point of my choice and then calculates the interpolation and necessary steps for a given aperture. So, it' striving the lens' focus motor in small steps.


So, I remain convinced, an in-camera adjustment of PDAF with the help of CDAF is not impossible, especially, if the camera already knows how much "disfocus" is needed in PDAF. And since Sigma lenses allow different adjustments for different distances, I don't see an impossibility to store this information in-camera as well. It's just strange that cameras with LV abilities are unable to adjust their AF system. I'd see that as more progress than another higher pixel count which brings the mechanics of PDAF close to their limits.


CamRanger does this focusstacking, too, although in no elegant way. Plus driving a motorised tripod head for automatic panorama shots, if necessary, with HDR. So, CamRanger offers a bit more than EOS has inbuilt - but with this comes extra cost, cables, weight and time to set up this stuff. It has improved and was worse one year ago, but it still is an extra piece of equipment.


I'd be quite happy, if one Nikon could connect to my iPod/iPad like your EOS does.


When you're releasing the shutter in LiveView, is there a mirror movement involved? On Nikon, it is and it's timeconsuming. The rest of the LV features you're listing, Nikon offers, too. In a way...
