Graham, yes I understand that and for other than really close up macro shots that makes perfect sense.

What I am grappling with is the extremely short depth of field when working in macro mode and rather than trying to adjust focus with a static camera I thought of making up a rail system so that the camera can move smoothly towards the subject.

Alternatively, make up a lever arm to clamp on the focus ring to give more control over the very fine adjustments needed to move the focus point 1 mm at a time .....

Any advice is welcomed!
