Macro lenses really require manual focusing, anyway
In reply to cosmoxl, 4 months ago

Depth of field is shallow with macro work and to get what you want in focus, manually focusing at least for me is the best method.

Of course with today's touch focus lcd screens it might not be so necessary, but even the slightest movement of the camera, if you're hand holding, will throw the focus off.

Optimum macro is done with the camera on a tripod.

Am I sounded old school?
