Appreciate you, Wayne.  I'll be checking those out.  I have tried HF (about
a week into trial) and find it superb.  Something like this is going to be
necessary for me because PS (my older version) can't do a good enough job
stacking images of the size and quality I am now getting from the EM-1.  In
camera FS is fine for a lot of what I want with the 12-40, but it is not
adequate for many shots I want with the mZ 100-400.

I'm having trouble finding a download site for Picolay that doesn't give
Malwarebytes the shivers.  Mind sharing your URL ?
