    Macro is definitely easier with tilt screen and focus peaking. Personally, I think the tilt screen is the most important, as all focus peaking isn't always spot on.

    Ooh I've never thought about tilt screen that way before (I usually just tilt my body). Seeing D850 has both, it's time to save up methinks

    Yep, I just recently started stacking. I've got a stackshot auto-rail, but I only use it at home, because it's terribly inconvenient to use in the field.
    I'm interested to try handheld stacking for field shots this Spring.
