epleeds August 23, 2014 Share August 23, 2014 I just got my 105 macro that I rented for the weekend. Does anyone know what settings I need to set my Nikon D5100 to so that i can use the macro lens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Lazar August 23, 2014 Share August 23, 2014 I think you just attach the lens to the camera body. The 5100 does not have a built in focus motor, so you may have to focus manually. A tripod will help a lot. I like using a wireless remote as well, but it's not needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epleeds August 23, 2014 Author Share August 23, 2014 Do I leave it in auto or change to the M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Lazar August 23, 2014 Share August 23, 2014 You can set the lens to manual focus, but I don't think it matters. You'll have to do all the metering and focus manually. But you can still get plenty of awesome shots...you just can't point and shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
