I have a Nikon D5100 with a AF-S DX 35mm lens. I want to take close up pictures of my mouse mat so I can see the weave, texture and any signs of wear for review purposes, however when I select the Macro mode and move the camera close to the object it doesn't focus and only gives a beep when I move the camera further away defeating the point of taking macro shots as I may as well use manual mode.
How do I overcome this problem please? Also note it's not only related to dark surfaces but taking pictures of anything close.
Thanks
