    Exposure bracketing? Well, it worked. With me, it takes three shots, not one of which is dead on.

    Mate i recon i know more about nuclear medicine that photography. I feel like i have 10 cameras around my neck and im running screaming through a church sevice pretending no-one notices. You know the type....the 4 month old boxer puppy of the photographic world, knocking everyone over & licking them.

    They were macro 20-80 cm (hmmm imperial is 8"-30 odd ") & super macro 20 mm (3/4 ") I have always assumed macro has a shallow depth of field...from my photos it always has.
