These are all out of foucus and have have poor lighting (built in flash?). The lighting should be diffused and not come from trhe same directionas the camera

so much for depth of field then i guess, those were all done with built in flash, the apple ones had barely any light around anyway so i used the built in flash going for a depth of field kind of thing, as for focusing, the pizza was autofocused and it came out better than my manually focused one, the others are manually focused though

I just made some candy apples for my boys... But yeah.. Way too dark if anything you could have opened up the aperture a bit more, and set longer shutter speed maybe?

aperture was open as wide as it couldve gotten, longer shutter speed might have worked, im looking into getting a new lense that opens wider than 3.5-5.6 though.
