so poddster, what happened to that thread from ages ago about the macro photography?
on โ21-05-2014 09:01 PM
I just put it on the macro setting, i tried the manual focus but i will have to read about that because it isn't like my old school camera. The hardest thing is getting it to focus on what i want and not whats in the background, it was more good luck than good management. Are the lenses expensive.

I'll find one for you
Have a look in your manual as well it suggests add on lenses, but in anycase you will need the adapter tube

In your manual you will find under accessories an adapter tube You would need one of those as well but they are not expensive
And perhaps an adapter ring soyou dont habe to use the clip on adapter that comes with the lens

Thanks, the lens is pretty cheap now i just to find the manual. This is my fave of this afternoons attempts...only because the flower is small and floats around a lot.

You have chosen another hard subject, anything with a wide depth of field is a challenge
Try a daisy, cut it off and bring it inside, light it with bright illumination and use a small aperture setting on manual and the camera on a tripod.

only one native daisy in flower in the garden at the minute it's only got one single small flower.

Try and find something flatish with good well defined lines and contrast, even a coin.
Just make sure you dont get a reflection off it

I like them all, they are all pretty challenging to photograph and Boris has done well
I like the fuzzy one ๐
