Some tips Dennis
Dont use auto focus, set the mag/focus you want and move in and
out till you have focus manually.
Dont use a ring flash they are terrible, use a dedicated flash
off camera and as close to subject as possible.
Dont use a tripod - you dont need it if using flash and fast moving
subjects.
I can get perfectly sharp pics with a 200mm macro +close-up attachments hand held.

Use a DOF of at least f11 - f16 depending on available light
and adjust you iso to give you a good exposed background.
