Nice choice of diffuser, the rare pringle model, that explains how you take such excellent macro shots. I think we may have lost some readers here

Many of them are blurry and i obviously need some settings set up. My previous camere G6 someone gave me some settings which i stored and they were great night shots.
D5000 far more sensitive beast needs setting up right, taking them on auto and night mode but there not quite right.

Hi Drew
the night setting is for special effects not intended for normal shots. The reason the shots are blured is that the camera is setting a long time exposure, which it would do to make the most of the light that's avaiable.
For night shots you need to use flash any other method will not give the best results.

Think i may have been getting to close when i tried auto my brain is doing all the normal stuff that i did from my G6. I had a set distance to be from camera and i think maybe it's to close for the D5000.
So night mode is a definate no no then ?

I doubt your problem is about getting to close as the kit lens, if that is what you are using focus down to around 12 inches.
As said your problem is exposure related. Set the camera on full auto, up pops the flash, camera auto focuses and away you go
