[QUOTE="captain birdseye, post: 574896, member: 21047"] Well, a lot of macro shooters dont use AF, or even manual focus. They simply set the lens at minimum focus distance ( or where they want it to be ) and move the camera back and forth. f22 is bit too small an aperture though as it will likely give a lot of diffraction and will require a lot of light to give a good shutter speed. I rarely go smaller than f10, try and focus on the eye of the subject if you can for best effect. [/QUOTE]
