[QUOTE="hark, post: 668281, member: 13196"] Like Marcel said, when focusing with macro work, just moving slightly in and out makes a big difference with focus. The smallest movements can mean a huge difference whether or not something is in focus. Since we all enjoy spending someone else's money, here's a suggestion for down the road, Walt. :beguiled: If you decide to get into macro, eventually you might want to consider a focusing rail. Some allow slight tweaks forward/backward while others also allow side-to-side adjustments. This is one I have although I believe others here have a less expensive rail that they say is good. Mine looks to have gone up in price over the past 2 years.
