    Man I’ve been doing it all wrong! I should ask insect strangers for photography instead. 😂 nice tip Keith as usual.

    Hi Keith hope you're well. Another great video, with tips, I'm planning on taking my macro lens on our next holiday so hopefully I'll have a chance to try some macro photography.
    Best wishes stay safe Jon and Karen

    Good one Keith 👍. I need to do a bit more macro this year as a variation 🤔👍

      Thanks Mark, it’s fun to do, worth a play if you have the gear.

    Great tips Keith, I should stop with the iguanas and alligators and get more into macro “stuff”, a couple of days ago I got a Laowa 65mm macro lens (manual focus only) for my Fuji X-T4 and so far it’s working just fine, yesterday I got my first fly on a flower shot. Be well and stay safe.

      Hi Enrique, I looked into the Laowa 65mm lens, is it any good? I have a couple of videos coming up on the Canon 65mm 5x and it’s a great lens, awesome, I do love a fly shot.

      @@keithguppy Image quality I find it to be as good as my Fuji XF80 macro, at 1:1 and at 2:1, build quality feels and looks very nice, for some people the manual focus only could be an issue, I’m ok with it, I’ve been doing manual focus with my film cameras for over 30 years. I like the XF80 but it’s too heavy and large to walk around with, so I only use it on a tripod, the Laowa is much better that.

      Good to know, thanks. I definitely need to do some more research before buying something
