What settings do you typically set your camera to for macro?

It varies a bit based on lighting, but I typically try to keep the aperture 5.6-7.1 , I find that to be the sweet spot of having enough depth of focus and light. I'll keep my shutter speed around 250 and use ISO to compensate for the rest. I prefer to under expose my images a bit and restore the detail in post.
