>>3819158>I bought the Laowa Ultrawide specifically because I didn't want to do focus stacking. So, I don't really understand this statement.... the only Laowa macro lens capable of 5x magnification is the 25mm one (pic related). I thought you bought a different lens than this?
>I'm currently using a little Novoflex tripod on the ground, with the K1 mounted right to it.I mean, you don't have to actually be *on* the ground, but if you're on the second story of a house or apartment, or even the main level if you're over a basement, then vibrations can be a factor. Also, cars going by outside your house can be a factor. I'm not sure what a Novoflex tripod is, but it sounds like some cheap Chinese shit for a phone or something. Just get a quality tripod. If you want to test how long it takes your camera to settle down after touching it, or if it continues to shake even when not touching it, then put it in live view and zoom in on your focus point to like 10x or 20x or whatever the max magnification is.
