Thanks Don

Have the D70, so no mirror lock up or anti shock I'm afaid - I do use the electronic shutter release and I think I read somewhere that useing one of the delayed shutter programs the mirror goes up before the release. so will have to investigate this.
One of the main problems I find is that, focusing with say f2.8 and then winding up to f16-or 32 you have to be extremely careful not move the lens at all, as the working distance is so small that the slightest movement alters the DOF (what there is) hugely, and at the smaller aps you canot see enough to focus at all. Have to increase my dose of Beta Blockers LOL.
