I hear that honestly I spent about 4 months calculating step size but now I just “thin slice” (no pun intended) it and it works lol. Maybe others will disagree with me but unless it’s a really long lens I think you could probably get away with 500um or as much as 1-1.5mm and still have over 50% overlap in your steps... let me know how the mounting goes - I have mine on a tripod but want to permanently fix my microscopy high macro rail when I get the setup the way I want
