Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

1) Need advice. Bought used Sony Nex 3 and Tamron 90mm f 2.5 Macro lends plus Tamron 1:1 extender.

 

Can't get clear macro pics .

I have an online ring business. Want to take my own pics. I have a Sony DSC Hx20v point and shoot that gets great macro but not

good enough for my ring shots that I have to touch up in photo shop for the look I need.

Which I know how to do.

I just can't get a clear non fuzzy shot with any depth of field using my new "used" Sony Nex.

 

2) I twas instructed to start with aperture set to f 2.5, ISO@ 200, shutter 1/2.

 

- Did that plus different settings, no luck with clarity or depth of field.

 

3)Here is a pic at above setting. BAD as you can see.

*Would anyone instruct me? I tried with and without Tamron extender. I'm confused why it's so challenging.

 

*I've a great lighting set up etc. It's not lighting trouble. I use a tripod.

*I do however notice the LCD becomes all whited out a lot trying to shoot my rings in my bright white box with the Sony Nex 3 and lenses I've listed. 

***Please be kind, I'm novice. Gotta start somewhere. THANKYOU. :)
