I have purchased this lens one month before. I took lot of shots of butterfly and insects but most the are out of focus. Please give some tips.

Just got my Sony Alpha A900. Can't wait to get a lady bug on a really green leaf covered in morning dew. Oh yes, I'm not wait for all this to just happen. I have the lady bug, the plant, and a spray bottle. I think I need a little fog. Great tips, ty. Just got my Sony Alpha A900.

One question though, how bad is the issue of light diffraction in macro lenses other than the mp-e65? For a novice, an obvious way to make focusing easier is to increase the depth of field by stopping the aperture right down, something like f/22. This is a very bad idea for mp-e65 but what about the other more conventional macro lenses? Great tips.
