Thanks for aiming in the right direction. Bob

I picked up a Minolta to Canon adapter, as well as a set of extension tubes. Oh, also a Yongnuo Ring Light. I have had a great deal of fun with this equipment but am not sure if my pictures are Macro or just Close-ups.
Can someone give me a hand regarding the definitions of both. Much appreciated. I'm going to attempt to up-load a few of the pics I've taken.

It's been a while but I worked for Canon for 11 years, training retail store associates and management regarding the workings of Canon consumer printers.
What you describe, sounds like your rollers are either dirty or scratched. If I recall correctly, there was a roller cleaning function in the enclosed software. Try that or try cleaning the rollers with a soft cloth and denatured alcohol. Good luck.

Great pic's. What equipment and if possible settings, were you using?

It's just a matter of how you look at it.

Plenty of tread left and he/she's on the third bucket of some kind of "weed". I bet you're right, it's been out all winter.
