I wouldnt hold it far away, I'd put the other end right on the subject. 1 mm

lol they are a pain to get used to. keep trying you'll find it. It might take some time but you'll get it. try a leaf set it on a flat and focus there. then you just need to find the sweet spot when your looking at the plant.

clip a small sugar leaf off the bud look at it on a steady table - movements are magnified 60x too...
