Neat shots again
BTW that's the focusing method I use for all my macro shots- preset it and move the camera.

right, a typical method for close focusing in macro. I was refering to how the camera meters for exposure. As in, were you consistently dialing in some positive or negative EV if in A or S mode, or if in M were you over or underexposing?
