Focusing with a macro lens

[horizoner]

Hi,

I've realised that with a macro lens (Hoya +4 or +5) attached to my CP5700, the focus isn't that precise. I know it's not a cam shake cos there's no double image.

Is it a cam fault? Or we have to move the cam in and out a little after locking focus and snap when the pic appear sharper in the EVF?

:dunno:

when using a closeup filter ,
- there is only a small range of focusing distance
( for +4 , try 18 to 22cm )
- turn off ur macro mode
- move ur camera to finer focus on the object
- use smaller aperture
- use flash to compensate the shutter speed if it is slow
