I thought I had done as you described to turn macro mode on but then I
probably accidentally turned it off. With the extension tubes on I
likely couldn't tell what was producing the magnification. I think I
need to practice first with no tubes.
Thanks for the info on programming a button to turn focus enlargement on
and off. I hadn't thought of that. It would be a huge improvement in
control. Does that also control enlargement for MF lenses?
