I would say you need to stop down on the aperture more. Seems like there's not enough DOF to cover the entire subject.

sure sure. first u got to have a lens with aperture ring, if not, it'l b hard to hold ur cam and take pictures while keeping the aperture open all the time manually.

then comes the reverse ring, its also called reverse coupling, u have to buy according to ur lens diameter, like my 50mm its 52mm. theres budget buys and higher end buys, i've seen some starting from rm30 to nikon's very own for rm90-120.

u then screw in the reverse coupling to the front of ur lens (where u screw in the filters) then attached the coupling to the body (like attaching ur lens). then u select ur desire aperture from the aperture ring n start snapping Smile there'l b no autofocus though so u have to move to and away from ur subject. do let me knw if u want some pics on the reverse coupling on the lens. ready to help n share.

Interesting, Nikon sells reverse adapter? I thought only third party does them.
