Say you took five shots to merge as a pano but you shot 3 exposure bracketed sets of those 5, you select all 15 and right click and choose hdr panorama, you have some decisions to make about which projection, whether to deghost, whether to apply auto settings, whether to fill in the cropped edges, etc. Takes a few minutes on my setup, time to get coffee.

I have read that changing the aperture on the various shots changes the DoF and doesn’t play well with the final merging. Not a good idea to try to blend focus stacking with HDR.
You use shutter speed rather than aperture.

With the g9 does a single stacked image come out of the camera? JPEG?
On my Canon RP, you can automate focus stacking but you have to stack the images in software later, not in camera, I believe Nikon is also not in camera.

I finally got around to testing the process. Not the most interesting of light or sky, so I went under some trees on a small boardwalk. I shot multiple images, using focus peaking to identify where I was focusing, and using Exposure Compensation to lighten/darken the in-focus bits. (It is another story how LR/PS is messed up by Mac Catalina.) I then moved the 5 shots to PS as layers, auto aligned and auto merged for content. Other than a bit of cropping, the image needed almost no editing. Zains did slightly further lighten the green leaves at the top, but they were already lighter because the leaves were in a close focus part. I got the full depth of field and adjusted the tone for each zone. Probably will not work for all shots depending on how the light is distributed.
