Hi Leif  .... Welcome to the pain and joy of reversing.... I find hand holding makes life a lot easier when you can't control every aspect of the shot... As you see the slightest movement makes the difference between a sharp shot and sh_t shot..... With to much gear it is impossible to adjust on the fly... I find that once I achieve focus, I them rock back and forth very slightly to fine tune the eye.... Here is an example I may have posted already, but I can give you many....This is 4:1 This is your thread so I am not going to high jack it.... With lots of practice hand holding produces pretty consistent results..... Oh yes with a reversed lens an out front diffused flash is a must.. BTW I really like what you produced.....Take care.....

Gear: Yes
