[QUOTE="nidding, post: 228109, member: 17555"] Hey guys. I'm really interested in learning to shoot some great macro shots. I just really like the new perspective you get from looking at stuff up close :) So far I have burrowed an old micro nikkor 55 mm f/2.8, and plan on buying the older version of the same lens, as I'm not able to put in the cash down for a new lens, and a local guy is selling on for cheap :) Being a student I don't have a lot of money, and am not able to get the newest, fanciest stuff. So what I want to do, it to try and get some tips from you guys, about making the best out of a very little gear. Enough with the jabbing... I have tried a few times to get some shots, but am struggling a bit with sharpnes and light. These shots were done with a sb-24, bounced off a white wall. I can't seem to get them sharper in the view finder, so what can I do to get them sharper?
