Re: PESO: couple of bug macros

I figured it out eventually. The setting for letting the camera work with non-A aperture has to be set to allow focal length setting for shake reduction, otherwise it wont let you. Once I did that, I picked 55mm which was closest to 60 (but not over). Thanks for the comments. The small bug

Re: PESO: couple of bug macros

I really like the first image (232)! The sharp and colorful bug, against the blurred white foreground and background, is very effective. In the other shot the bug is too small, IMHO. My primitive understanding of the SR system is that it wants to know the focal length of the lens, Somewhere in
