This was mainly a test of the software for me, but the result came out so much better than I expected. Raw editing in darktable and focused stacked using ChimpStackr, two amazing foss pieces of software.

If Olympus is anything like Nikon, their software isn’t that great. It’s almost like they expect you to use commercial offerings. IMO, the only nice thing with Nikon’s offering is that it will show you focus information (what it was trying to focus on, if it though it had achieved focus, etc). Sony doesn’t offer any software at all, but you’ll get a free capture one express license.
Yeah, OM Workspace is the editor you get with Olympus/OM System cameras. Admittedly, I didn’t use it very much, but I get the sense it isn’t top tier. I’m just so thankful that there are great open source options.
Darktable is great. I don’t take photos of things that would benefit from focus stacking, but I’m going to take note of the repo. Thanks for sharing!
