I have an LX100 and a Raynox 250 adaptor (for now) and have about reached the limits of what I can do with them. Ideally I would like more magnification and more depth of field, but for the time being the depth of field issue would be priority. I have never done any focus stacking. I understand the basics but would like a few tips to get started. Firstly, I'm guessing I need a slide adaptor/tripod setup. I have been looking at this slide:

I'm not sure what tripod to get, but would like something I can get close to the floor with for insects/spiders etc at ground level if needs be. Also, is there a specific program you can use for stacking without laying out a monthly subscription fee for photoshop? I mainly just shoot jpeg and use Fastone most of the time for a few basic adjustments. I don't really want to get into raw as my laptop is ageing and would (well, does) struggle to process them.
