You said that getting focus with +3 closeup is hard.
Unfortunatly, all other options are even harder! I think, the first you need is just practice. It's possible to get pretty good results with closeup lens on the top on standard zoom.
Try to work with and without autofocus. Try to undestand relations between DOF, focal length and closeup factor. Make pictures. Avoid anything without Auto Aperture (cheap extension tubes, bellows, reverse adapters - you are not ready for them).

Its great lens, but with a few problems.
1) missing quick-shift focusing - you cant "assist" the autofocus - so I you will find yourselft using MF really soon
2) counter-light flare can be a problem also.

compared to DL:
a little quieter mirror,
less trouble with dust (thanks to the water and dust resistant body),
better dynamic range, less noise @ISO 400..800,
the noise seems to be more natural compared to the 6MP sensor.
