I don't understand? I am using STS80HD + Olympus C7070WZ, even though the object is quite close, but I cannot take such a sharp photo, whether I have to change any setting in my camera?

forgot to quote the camera: Olympus C7070

There are two possible reasons for the vignetting:

(1) I haven't remove the rubber ring of eyepiece.

(2) my adaptor for the C7070 is not perfectly fit, I am using Raynox RT5248B (there is 4mm space between the len and the fringe of adaptor)
