The depth of field is in millimeters so can you take 10 shots on a rail system and combine the pictures in photo shop for best results on wide open A?

Yes. Though I'd recommend using some automation program such as Zerene Stacker.

Depends what you mean by "shallow." You will get the most shallow depth of field by using Aperture priority ("A" on the dial) and then picking the largest aperture that gives you decent exposure. For most situations that'll be good enough...

Sorry, I can't give you a definitive answer. It partly depends on what you are photographing and at what magnification. At high magnification the lens is very close to the subject ( a centimeter or two) and the lens body might interfere with flash reaching the subject. I have shot only plant parts in natural light, and that works well.

Yes you can....but depth od field is so.critcal when doing Macro photgraphy that I would not use it. But yes the camera works as always.

What Tim said. You will need to manually focus with this tube. If the subject is moving it will be very difficult to get a photo you'll like. The depth of field is also very large, with a small focus area.

Yes. Just remember that your depth of field is going to be very narrow at widers apertures.... But you can get very nice pictures with it for those purposes.

With a maximum aperture of f 1.8 you could but you are limited to taking shots at wide angle which may defeat the purpose.

Yes you can. Pressing the shutter button half way will focus and then press it rest of the way to take picture(s)

yes, you can view through the viewfinder for those tight shots. it is a very nice camera.

yes it does give you some settings of aperture for different situations. Not as in-depth as it could be.
1671036
Yes, but you will have to zoom at 15mm or 16mm, Why not take the full frame version, 16-28

You've probably made your buying decision by now, but I've personally found that you need a far narrower aperture to get a decent space shot even with a 60" exposure on a 4/3 sensor.

Yes. It will work. Beautifully too I might add. Go outside, set your camera to AV mode, set aperture to f/1.4, and snap away! Shooting wide open is so much fun.

I wouldn't see why not. The wide angle does what it says, it just gives a little more of an angle in all directions allowing you to capture a larger field of view. Make no mistake, it's not a significant larger field of view, but it is nice. This equipment is solid quality stuff. Get it, you can't go wrong.

no it doesn't, because of the wide lens, it needs to incorporate the entire focus on the subject that you are shooting. for the money I think it works to the best of it's ability.

No, unless you are ion a tipod, the light is too weak for a long shot. Close is better, and distant requires a tripod and ling exposure. 5 feet would be pushing the envelope a lot. You wpould require a strobe and tripos. The intensity of the light isn't a lot of lumes.

Yes, on the telephoto end. But 4mm more on the wide end is more beneficial In my opinion.
