Folks, had some time on my hands this afternoon due to being on hols. Decided to start having a dabble with some of my cameras functionality. Had a go using the preset Macro mode, which has yielded some ok results. Wanted to try and increase the depth of field a little though.
I would appreciate any thoughts and constructive critiscm on these couple of samples of an open pine cone taken on the table top. Settings used were Av mode, ISO 100, F20, 1 and 1/3 under exposure with a shutter speed of 0.8 seconds on a Canon EOS 500D with a Canon IS 18-55 kit lens.
