As an amateur who shoots jpeg and will never use anything like lightroom, I'm having too much fun learning through my own experience, so no thanks...
I am a pro and for year book shots I shoot only jpgs of team sports and things. I think only by pushing the wrong button when I first started shooting digital I shot raw then only by accident. You can in Photoshop import a jpeg in the raw mode and you can import many shots in and work them all while bringing them into Photoshop in raw mode. You just need to finally save them as jpgs or psd as Photoshop brings the shot up as dngs in raw mode input.

Don't have it yet but also is supposed to do hyperfocal distance, focus and exposure stacking and remote release. I had some extra cash and needed a new toy so ordered it. I'm thinking it can be updated with new functions via software changes too. Never did go fund me before. We'll see.

Please share your experiences with it once you have tried it out. Very interested in your results. I have a Miops trigger which is well made and works very well for me.

I bought one with delivery in September. Show me any other camera trick that can shoot focus stacked with the push of a button!!!

This device attaches to a DSLR camera and calculates proper settings. It costs $175. Does anyone have experience using it?
Change "attaches to a DSLR" to "is a DSLR". Reminds me of one of those boiled egg devices they advertise for people too lazy to boil their own. This would only really work if lighting, distance, desired effect, lens, camera body, person using it, were exactly the same from shot to shot. Just another way to waste money that could be better spent on gear, or on gas to get to a good location to shoot

Frankly I'm not a serious photographer tho I've taken courses and gone on trips with extremely good professionals (Az Highways photographers) and my Nikon equipment is much better than I am, so look forward to getting my new toy. I'll provide what I can.

Sorry, but you have your description wrong. It attaches to a DSLR and it does not need the scene or the camera settings to be the same from one situation to the next. Yes, it will make choices for you IF you want it to, but the choice is up to you. Why have any of the various attachments that are available to us when we can go out and shoot photos with a basic camera? The Arsenal is just another tool for our toolbox.
