Completely on impulse I decided to buy the Laowa 15mm f4 ultra wide angle macro lens, reviews said it was a difficult lens to use and they're not lying, since the working distance is practically up against the lens but I can see it getting a little easier after some practice.

 Pterinochilus murinus by Jason the Hutt, on FlickrThe pissiest big spider I've ever encountered. Apparently they're known in the pet trade for being aggressive and bitey.

I'd like to get back into wildlife macro photography, but I'm running into a major problem. I can't really on my stomach to take photos anymore and have a hard time getting on hands and knees. Is there any way to, um, put a camera on a tripod, line up the shot, and then adjust the focus, aperture, and focal length thru a phone or tablet? Follow up, how unrealistically expensive do such things cost?

I can't really on my stomach to take photos anymore and have a hard time getting on hands and knees. There are some products like that. One kind that comes to mind is CamRanger although to be honest I've only seen that setup used in studio sessions and I don't know how well it would work when it comes to the purpose you're after though they do market it as a macro option. It's $299 usd but there are also some knock-offs floating around that are cheaper. There are some options specifically made for macro photography though they usually cater to the focus stacking side of it, such as Helicon remote which runs around $75 usd for desktop/mobile versions or $48 usd for just mobile versions.

A lot of cameras these days have wi-fi onboard and have 1st party smartphone apps to let you use your phone as the viewfinder/touchscreen interface. You can typically do anything that doesn't involve physically moving the camera or the lens- so you can adjust aperture, shutter speed, focus point, drive mode and so on, but not zoom or the actual camera position.

Oh, I wasn't clear. I don't need it to move or zoom or change the camera position. I'd line up the shot and would then use the app check things out and shoot.

I can't really on my stomach to take photos anymore and have a hard time getting on hands and knees. Panasonic's image app lets you pretty much do just that. Plus you'd get to use Olympus' excellent 60mm macro lens. You could probably pick up an older Panasonic body and the Olympus macro for under $800, or go hog wild, get the latest and greatest G9 plus the lens for around $2k.

It also does focus peaking and focus stacking assistance which are cool for macro. tk fucked around with this message at 20:35 on Jul 5, 2018 |

Finally had the time with a motionless subject to try focus bracketing with the full Olympus setup. Super smooth and easy, though I had to do some manual layer adjustments on the stack. I think they'd be pretty noticeable with a less furry subject, and still keep finding blurry spots.
