Great Macro shots. Do you have any focus stacked ones of that spider as well?

It's actually not a ringflash. The Canon EF-M 28mm has two diodes around the front element and it works quite well. Eats a lot of battery though. It's very visible on the Salticus big puppy eyes.
I believe both of these are with autofocus, but I'd have to check to be 100% ... Usually with the fast movers I have more luck with AF, but I try to switch it up.
Sigma 105mm is a great lens, and sure to stay in my selection, but right now I'm itching to try out the R7 and the RF100mm in the field. I had some good results with R7 and the Sigma last autumn, but have yet to try the 100, that I splurged for some months ago, for real.
At that point every handheld focus stack I tried ended up a blurry mess, so no. Been working on that, so maybe later. OTOH, these guys don't stay put for long.

Just a happy amateur, really.
I can, requires a bit of setup though. For some reason I've not done too many...
I just checked out the RF100mm, looks a nice bit of glass but way out of my budget.
i switched to Fuji a few years back, so i use the Sigma with an adapter and use manaul and the rocking back and forward malarkey😀
There are some good Canon Mirrorless out now, but I don’t think I could get one passed the wife😂
Just don't tell🤣
Frankly, if I hadn't got a nice end of year bonus I'd probably have needed to do some more self convincing. This is not the place where I should mention I'm eyeing up the RF 100-500mm (yes the L lens)😵😭 damn!
I haven't had much time with the RF100MM but so far it's looking to be a killer combo.
I wouldn’t have to tell as we have a joint account😟 I spent a fortune on Fuji gear but I now only buy second hand. Im always looking on MPB for stuff I can’t afford. The body prices drop like a stone but a good lens always holds its value. I went X-T1,
X-T2, X-T3 then HX-1. Till a had to have a word with myself😂 Its like this hobby, it’s a money pit😜 Anyway I look forward to seeing future shots with your new combo.
Wex are always worth a look for used gear, in my experience they are very accurate with the description of the item
I agree, used them many times.
Oh hi!
It hasn't been a particularily good year for bug photos, for a variety of reasons. I do have a few, and I'll be doing a bit of updates over the winter.
Here's a couple from may '23. All with R7 and Canon 100mm.

Bit late, but there's a few macros in this post, if you haven't seen them.

The Jebao SLW - 10 is fairly small, can be turned right the way down. It’s very inexpensive. It’s not App controlled but has a manual controller. To me that would seem like the perfect pump for you?

Anyway, I have a few shots from the last year, and I'll post some up soon-ish. Season has started, just saw this years first bumblebee😛
