I'm definitely going to experiment with stacking later to see how much I can push it.
I didn't use any special rig to take these photos. They were taken on my office desk or dining table. Even the light is just the overhead lights. I used gorilla pod or simply stack random things together to use as a tripod. They were taken in RAW with a little bit of WB fixing and color adjustments. I did find that focus peaking is pretty useless to me. I much prefer the 4x focus assist feature. Often I thought I had things in focus using focus peak, but when I double checked with the 4x assist, it was obvious the focus point was not optimal.

Thanks, posted to the reference thread.
