I only use HDR stacking for indeed getting better highlights and shadows adjustments, f.e. a landscape with a high sun peeking through the clouds, contralight, dark trees/branches without leaves and a very dark grassy foreground. In order to get detail in the trees/branches, and colour in the grass, the only option was to use a 4-stop HDR (0, +2, +4), without exaggerating the feel of a very early spring day. I did process the Raws manually for a natural looking result, however, no automated processing.
Focus stacking is something I have always done manually until recently, with a macro rail (2 actually, perpendicular to each other <ROFL>. With an Olympys body it is very easy to do, in-built, and works well (see f.e. the topic I started on the Romanian photographer in the MFT forum).
Kind regards, Wim
