[QUOTE="blackstar, post: 752221, member: 47518"] Thanks, Dangerspouse. The coin images are interesting. I tried some and found out coins are rather big for macro and no extension tubes are needed. Yet DOF still razor-thin and using 18mm - 55mm zoom to focus won't cover the whole subject. Maybe I do need a rail... I realize lighting becomes non-relevant if shooting macro outside on bright or just sunny days :) But then everything outside moves voluntarily or forcibly... and too bad being a night owl unable to be up early morning to catch the moment most insects still prior to waking up. Anyway, I tried in mid the day. Found and pursued this lady for more than one hour. Made more than 50 shots all under hush and awkward situations. Only one shot barely achieved partial macro quality: [/QUOTE]
