Watch the Seconds Run
This is a stack of not only one photo per second, but also two separate macro focus stacks. Since I had to keep touching the watch to start, stop, and set it, I shot a little bigger and cropped to this size. Some of the seconds don't line up because the camera didn't take a photo at that time. The second hand moves 16 times per second, so I would have to shoot at 32 or more frames per second to be sure of getting every perfectly aligned second. The R7 can't shoot for 15 seconds (or even 5) at that rate, so I made my peace with missing exact seconds. Originally I tried to do this with flash, but alas, the flash triggers can't keep up.
