I am NOT a photographer, that being said I have a canon power shot A80 I set to macro and take about 10 shots of the same setup slightly modifying the range and then picking the best picture of the set. Its cheating I know but I realy have no other way of telling how focused the shot is. thank God for digital cameras. the film cost would suck LOL

Why do you think I take 90-some shots and only use high 30s for a dio? Lighting, fuzziness, angles, a lot goes into it. And yes, amazing that we don't have to use film anymore!

Ah now..

Today I brought a mesuring tape with me out in the forest and that helped got two shots of a cobra sniper that I dare show. Still my camera is dead set on focusing on everything but the figure. My old film camera had a dial where you could adjust the focus where you wanted but I cant find it on my camera.
