You can get close to it handheld, but you'll still have some blur without and with stacking. Stacking isn't fast enough to capture bugs that are moving, or when there's wind. If it's completely still, you can possibly get 3-10 stacks handheld. And then get maybe three or four images that can be used to combine an image. More often than not you get nothing usable. Small apertures and good light helps. Smaller sensor is also beneficial. You get more depth out of it, and there are cameras and lenses that allow auto focus stacking that rack focus and take shots for you. I'm on Olympus for that, but it's pretty common feature now on many mid to high end bodies. Without stacking, you just need to be happy with blur.
