The mad doctor intends to... to... mutilate another poor innocent defenseless lens. The horror, the horror...

I though I might make this one look like another little survey, since they seem to be the fashion around here these days... I was just wondering, in relation to that other post of mine regarding macro lenses, how exactly people here prefer do to the focusing when doing macro work. Notably, who uses autofocus and how well does it work?

My macro lens is not AF, but I would not consider an AF lens for macro.
Once I'm in the ballpark with magnification, then it's a simple matter of
moving the camera/lens backwards or forwards until focus is achieved.
Minimum aperture and a ringflash, and away I go :-)

My macro lens is not very versatile though, and I am still considering an
A*200 f/4 to convert to EOS.

HTH




Cheers,
