[QUOTE="J-see, post: 363555, member: 31330"] Yet that's an inescapable problem in macro. You'll never get all the flower or all the fly in focus the more you close in at 1:1. There are only two solutions: step back and crop down or stack. Both will provide perfect focus but at a cost. If not desiring that, you have to pick the part you want in focus. To add; not with that much pleasure I bought an SB-700 today to solve some macro issues. The idea I had using LEDs turned out to be a failure. I discovered that when it comes to additional light, even a thousand Lumen is but the equivalent of attempting to make a difference by farting during a hurricane. I had the R1C1 in mind but its functionality is somewhat compromised by the length of my lens which is why I settled for the SB-700. Now I got to do some reading up on flash and get over my dislike.
