Okay, you got the 18-55mm lens? Maybe you cant get good close ups with that...
I dont know too much about SLR's yet.

18-55 isn't really designed for close up photography. Look at getting the Sigma 105mm F2.8 macro. This spider is about 1cm across, I took this photo with the Sigma 105mm F2.8 macro, Pentax AF 540 FGZ flash, Pentax K10D, F5.6, 1/320, and ISO 100

I read my brains out; I read as many photography books as I can. I then go out for hours and take pictures and see how I can improve each photo.

maybe your all using FF, and he's using IE or vice versa.


well at about the end of my Christmas my DSLR decides to shit out.

I'm thinking it's the lens, It won't focus either manually or automatically Frown
And due to Xmas, I'm short for the camera I want Frown

Olympus E-300 (stock 14-45mm lens)

simply just doesn't focus, and the manual focus ring doesn't do anything what so ever, usually while turning it, it makes a noise while turning, but it doesn't do anything.
