| Jan Looks like your new toys are working good. Great macros, but be aware of the focal point, like with your lady bug, more focus is on the bud than her, and she looks just a bit out of focus. I always have to watch that with macros. | |

| Try setting your focus to one shot, then using your touch pad on the back to change the focal point. I am not sure how your focal point one shot works, but this may help see page 57 of your manual. | |
