I have a Sony a200 with a 75-300mm macro lens. I absolutely love playing in macro, but I can not figure out how to use this lens. I have tried auto and manual focus. Nothing brings the subject into focus. I have tried various distances from subject with no luck. What am I doing wrong? How do i get this lens to focus in macro? Can anyone help?

Yesterday I bought some extension tubes and took a picture of the exact same flower that you have on your post. Then I open up this post this morning and I thought one of my own pictures was staring me in the face :) I did get a giggle out of this post.

I still use my P&S for close-ups because right now I can't afford a dedicated macro lens. I have a Samsung P&S which I can control the aperture and shutter speed when I shoot macro but I have it in manual and press the macro button. i don't turn the dial to macro, i'll have to try it and see if I can still control the aperture and shutter.

Thanks for these tutorials on macro photography- i knew some of what you speak about already, but it is always nice to be reminded and there is always a chance to learn something new.
