Thnx (:

I have the same lens and camera, very nice.
Don't use flash when taking the macro's with it, doesnt look as crisp.. Best to use a tripod and remote.
Do you have anymore pictures?

Hi there not any good yet I am still learning to take pics of TC jarrs...
Btw how do you have your camera setup when taking macro pics ?

Not sure how Ronnie shoots, but my setup usually goes as follows:

Tripod (NECESSARY)
Camera set to "A" (aperture priority)
manual focus and F-Stop

If you don't have a tripod then try to keep the ISO around 400ish.. This will keep the shutter speed fast and allow you to get a sharp picture

I don't have "set" settings.. i just go and whatever the situation try to adapt to get the best possible picture..

Cheers,
Ronnie!

Ok I see I also use a tripod but still ahvnt learned mutch off the camera :p

Adam,

You mean HDR(High dynamic range)? 3 pictures of different exposure merged..

On my camera i put it on P(aperture priority) then go to menu. Go to AEB. and move it until it's sitting on 3 different exposures and take 3 pictures on the tripod with a remote.. Works better on continous shooting..

Theirs probably another way to do it but thats what i do..

Cheers,
Ronnie.

I think Adam wants software that takes photos at multiple focal lengths and them mashes them together to make one picture with a very long depth of field.

BTW Ronnie, in my experimenting with HDRs I've found that I usually get much better results with 5+ exposures (usually ranging from -3 to +3).
